No wonder you are worn out, if you don't find time for yourself and deligate jobs, how will you manage to be there for anyone else. I work for a foster agency and they are very firm about having timeout for the foster carers otherwise the whole family fall apart if the main carer wears themselves out.

 

You were not born Super woman even through you fit the job perfectly. Find others to help, I am advising you and certainly don't take notice myself, but I am trying to.
