WFH w/ kids is so difficult bc of the constant noise. There& #39;s no quiet esp. since they don& #39;t nap anymore. They& #39;re @ that age where they just repeat the same word 100x & ask 1M questions.

My anxiety is through the roof. I need quiet time to recharge & that doesn& #39;t exist anymore.

It& #39;s only 9am, we& #39;ve only made it through getting dressed and starting the first school assignment & it& #39;s sounding out letters and reading phonemes. But of course he& #39;s 6 so there& #39;s fart noises & random mouth noise & squeaking (?! WHHHHYYYYY)

Then the little brother has found every too that makes sound and is playing with it IN MY EAR!

WHHHHYYYYY?!

I really miss personal space. And silence. And a desk that isn& #39;t mysteriously sticky.

Why are kids always sticky?! I spend 82% of my day cleaning them...

I& #39;m not WFH, I& #39;m surviving constant anxiety & trying to appear well adjusted 4 my kids so they have some form of normalcy & source of peace & calm in this crazy era.

I adore them & want to do my best but it& #39;s also incredibly taxing.
