Ha good to know I’m not alone, hard work with 2 of them needing all your time and energy! I’ll plod along at my own pace and try to not worry about producing fast!

Totally! We deserve rest and relaxation, too!

Good tactic, I’ll take that on board, I did have some dedicated time, post bedtime but sometimes it’s just like;  nopeeee no way I’m opening the laptop, I’m just gonna sit down and do nothing – which is needed.

I’m trying to build a side project in the evenings after work but have a pre school kid and a baby - feels impossible, anyone else attempted this? Feels not worth trying right now

I try not to think about what I produced, but about how much satisfaction I got out of the time spent. Sometimes that means going to my desk after bedtime routine, sometimes that means going to bed early after a day of fulfilling/exhausting parenting.

I’m right there with you — big ideas and a 4 year old and 2 year old. No advice, just solidarity
