                chill ,... i dun go crazy with my kids work ..my own outside work already drive me nuts - But at least i got PAID + bonus ..But i am a bit angry at times, or every other day with ds . my dh said i may get old easily, ... manage n adjust our expectations are key to quality ageing 😆 i have given kid resources, its time they manage themselves at upp sec , else how to go tertiary - we cant be there all the time to \"watch and hawk\" at them ... i still do nag to remind them - else they will behave like 没政府 - i dun allow this to happen

                oh ya... i miss those days going ecp play sand n eat nearby parkway hawker or east coast hawker .... where di my time go now... like more busy as kids grow too (??)

                  i'm stressed because i'm always watching out for time. daughter wants time out, but her workload is so heavy.

                  this could be a trigger for this dumb eczema, other than renovation going on at other units :rant:

                      sweetie, men at 53 are not considered old...I would say men get old from 60s.
                      I will be 47 this year. metabolism has dropped.

                        How about giving your process a specific and agreed time withduration as her own time, and the rest will be \"work\" time?
                        During her own time, it will be your ME or rest time.
