I have two kids and a dog and have always worked FT (went back to work 12 weeks after my first was born). We own a 13-year-old lab mix, who really was our first baby. When we travel she either comes with us (and it's never been a big deal) or she stays at my husband's aunt and uncle's house (we are really close with them). We love dogs, but tbh, our dog is one of the easiest and friendliest I've ever met. But she was my husband's first, so he's very much involved with taking care of her. ;-)

I agree, day to day life can be exhausting! I've found that taking 10-15 minutes a day to work out has made a huge difference for me. I get a big endorphin bump from exercise and I'm happier, sleep better, and feel less tired when I'm working out regularly. Good luck!

Same here - it's a challenge, but I wouldn't say it's a problem. We all need to vent now and then. :)

Heather, I'm not sure what you're asking. There are certainly plenty of working moms here, with pets (I'm one of them). Can you clarify what you're trying to learn?

You're invited.
