Do you have to ask permission to do those things or is it more in your head/something you can't get past?
For me, I don't have any guilt 95% of the time because this is something we've decided for our family. I'm doing my part in a decision made by two people. But, every once in a while, I wish I was contributing financially.
It's a personal thing that's in my head. It has been more on my mind since I quit my PT/work from home job last fall.
I'm sorry. I'd say "Dont do that to yourself," but I know it's not that easy.
--life has been crazy. Flu season hit at work, we've been seeing 2-3times the amount of patients we normally see + the neighboring business went out of business, so I don't have wifi at work now = less time to TCF.
I took some time out last weekend for myself...and found out my social anxiety is out of control. I've always been an unpopular girl with few real friends...so being a bit of a hermit is natural to me. However, I've been working from home for 9 years now, so I am even more out of practice. I was practically vibrating from being around people. Even 50's music seemed too much for me to deal with in a mostly empty bargain book store (in my defense it was loud).
It makes it hard to get decompression time away from the girls when I am stressed by being in public. I wish DH could take the girls out somewhere.

You could always ask him!
He used to be able to do it once in a while when there were only 2, but 3 is just too much for him to handle. Once they get older, hopefully things will get better.
I am currently obsessed with watching The Secret Life of the American Teenager on Netflix. I found out Shailene Woodley was in it and decided to try it. Now I cant stop watching and it is a seriously bad show.
Omg I've watched the entire series! So embarrassing!
