I hope someone can give me some sound advice on my problem. I work at home doing MT and have three children 6, 4 and 2. The 6yo goes to school (out for summer now) and the other two go to babysitters usually all week. There are times when I have things come up during the day to where I have to type in the evenings to get my quota. The kids just don't seem to get it. They are constantly fighting (the two girls 6 and 4) and I don't get anything done other than yelling and then I am left to stay up well past Midnight to get my work down after they have gone to bed. Hubby is a police officer and works rotating shifts so he is not usually home in the evenings. I am 39 and this is my second marriage. I have a 19 yo from prior marriage and at times I just feel like I am missing out on what should be the time of my life that I am able to do whatever I want without kids around. I know that sounds horrible to say, but it's how I feel. I want to enjoy my kids (because they are good kids for the most part), but I'm having a hard time getting any work done in evenings and weekends with them. Any suggestions? They know "mommy is working" because it's all they know as I have been doing this for 14 years. Thanks for any ideas and suggestions.
