I work full time, I am a full time mother of two and a wife, I get up each and every day and get myself and two children ready for work and daycare like a ton of people do. My kids get dropped off by 7:00 am and drive 1/2 hour 45 min to start work at 8am. I have been having an awful time at work and feel the stress where I am physically ill because of it. then I have to somehow leave it at work and pick my kids up at 5pm. Sometimes it is very hard to flip that switch to off.
I am not complaining for having to do the normal every day stuff and take care of my family, I enjoy my family and I love the type of work I do but sometimes I don't know how to turn it off at 5 when I pick my kids up.
HOW DO I LEAVE IT AT THE OFFICE?
does anyone have any suggestions? It isn't fair to be less than a happy loving wife and mother to the people whom love me the most and don't deserve the end result of a horrible day!
I am just looking for some new outlets. please help- I am open to any and all ideas
Thanks for letting me vent!!

Hi Jill, is there something you can do that that will take your mind off work on the way to picking up kids? I like to really crank up the radio (on ks95 of course) and sing very badly while driving home or listen to a good audio book. Sometimes if I'm really stresed I just scream in my car!!
TinaI know sometimes it's hard in traffic, but use that time to enjoy yourself and "flip the switch"

PS- cute kids!
