I’ve been working full time for eight years now. I came back to work after a week off for Christmas thinking I’d be feeling refreshed but I’m just… not.
I leave for work at 7:30 and get home at 6:30. On nights I play sport or have a work event (2-4 times a week) I get home at 10. On weekends and the nights I have off I’m just catching up on chores. I hate going to bed on Sunday thinking “the next time I’m going to have time to myself to relax is Friday night”.
How do people do this for decades? How do chores get done? I hate just doing the bare minimum. I want to eat nice meals and have a clean, functional house. I want to enjoy my hobbies and not be exhausted doing them.
Sorry for the rant. It’s only January and I’m already just so burnt out.
