From what you post here, I think you're doing an amazing job with everything that's on your plate. I think it takes an incredible amount of strength to do everything that you're doing. Truly โค๏ธ

Please try to take some time for yourself. You need it and you absolutely deserve it. Easier said than done I know, but if it goes on like this for a long time it'll take more of a toll on you.

Maybe for the next couple of weeks, you can take the kids out on the weekend on alternating weeks?

I don't know if that would help, but maybe it's worth a shot? It would at least recharge your social battery for a while.

Thanks Gibson, you're very kind to say that. I've got to think of a strategy for energy management lol
