Stay at home moms venturing into the workplace.

I don't have any experience like you, right now I'm working full-time without no family of my own to take care about, but I can imagine how exhausting that must be for you. When I come home from work, it's always exhausting already and to think that someone like you still need to fix dinner, take care of the kids and everything...=) Eventhough you work 4 hours a day, yet you still have to prepare yourself just like anyone else who will be working 8-9 hours a day. I hope the exhaustion has now lessened after four months since you started this discussion. Maybe it's like when we change job, there's a time for adaptation. Maybe if we think of it as a new adventure, it'll get more exciting...=) I wish you all the best, Compumom...

I stayed at home all summer with my son. I found that my new job (I work PT as well) is exhausting. The job I have now is much more mentally taxing and the problems that come up are way more exhausting than anything I ever did at home. Ofcourse, I am still trying to get everything done that I was doing during the summer as well. So I have less time to get the same amount of things done. I am sure that adds to being tired.
