When I want a day off from work, I still have to manage things like getting a child to school & home from school Monday through Friday. When I want a day off work, I still have to cook, clean and do laundry. Did I mention, I am "just the stepmom"....and I say that not because that is how I feel. Not that part anyway, but often I do feel a bit put upon by everyone in my family, and not in my family.
Maybe, early on-I took on to much, trying to be so helpful and useful, so I didn't dwell in my own misery-I cannot say because that was so long ago, all I do know is that I would love to have a day off work, and a day off home. A real day at home without anyone needing me for anything, but just me reading, knitting, or cooking something I want to cook and enjoy.
Do all moms feel like this?
xoxo, Lela
