Holy shit, I feel this so much. I have been struggling with dwindling ambition/motivation over the past year and I keep thinking, "What is wrong with me?" But yes, I am also insanely busy with the minutiae of raising two tweens with a mostly full-time job and a husband who is out of the house 12 hours a day 4x a week. Maybe that's why...... Anyway, thanks for putting things to into perspective. I will read this over and over again.

Sometimes I think about when my kids are grown and possibly at the stage of thinking about starting their own families, and what I would tell them/their partners about what you could realistically expect from yourself at that time of life and/or what type of help you may need if you can get it.

Although I also hope I’m wise enough to just keep my mouth shut, and support them.
