The grass is always greener... I sometimes wish I had a stable routine! As a freelancer I hate that I have to plan out the coming month of babysitting at weird and irregular times and that if I don't read my calender properly... I end up. In the wrong place at the wrong time...
I don't think I'd like the unpredictability of that kind of life. I used to think I wanted that, but part of the reason I'm happy now is that I've accepted I like doing the same thing every day.
I admire anyone who can pull it off, though. And with kids too - that takes some superpower level of planning and preparation!
Well... it is a lot of planning ahead... especially when you live on the other side of the planet to the grandparents. Still, it is possible... if a touch draining at times!
