It's not the lack of sleep, I'm actually doing better in the sleeping department these days. I wouldn't mind sleeping in a little more, but that's not the problem

Babe, you still need to take a few minutes at odd times *just for you* (though on thought, that might explain the coffee mugs I keep retrieving from your bathroom ;)
Seriously, there is a lot of research going into this right now, specifically with regards to children. Their lives are so regimented and rushed that they actually get *less* done and are under tons of stress. Slowing down allows you to actually attend to each task and get more accomplished and better.
Okay, I know thats hard to do when you have to work (billsbillsbills) and need to make sure N is covered. But try? You won't do your family any favours by burning out. (Hey, maybe broach the idea of you and yours having a day without your mom and hers on Labor Day? Maybe?)
I'm doing that with months right now, and have since early June. I think there's a gap in late October but that's still a long way off. Might not make it in one piece.
