Have very little work that I can do from home.
Have 3 teen children at home
I do 2-3 hours of work a day. 3-4 hours of housekeeping and pesach prep.
Even get to do about 1-2 hours of spring cleaning. 2-3 hours of screen time/phone/ Imamother. FaceTime my married kids, parents in laws and talk to friends and workmates. Cook. Eat. I could do more spring cleaning cooking and pesach prep but I hate it!
I would honestly love to just watch a movie but somehow it doesn’t feel or look right so I’m constantly trying to look busy! Haven’t kashered or started cooking yet but I will iyh Thursday.
Anybody else in my shoes?

What? That's a lot of fulfilling work in one day when there's a pandemic going on. Please treat yourself to a movie. I'm doing literally nothing but hanging on my phone all day. I haven't started cleaning a single thing for pesach. That's called unfulfilled.

Are you joking?? Unfulfilled??? You are literally maximizing every second and still have extra time to watch a movie!!! I just wonder from room to room and get distracted every 2 minutes so I can’t complete anything .

I agree with Stars. We really have to keep our spirits up. Yes, say some Tehillim, and listen to/watch something inspiring on TorahAnytime etc. (It does NOT have to be corona chizuk. I plan to binge watch R' Yoel Gold today.) But get some humor and some enjoyable entertainment into your day too. You are the facilitator of your home and need to be strong, physically and emotionally.

I have plenty to do, but none of it is fun. I'm still recovering from being ill, I have very little strength or energy, and even less motivation.
I'm bored and frustrated with myself at the same time.

I am working long hours from home M-F, and I still feel somehow unfulfilled. It just doesn't seem normal. I work in healthcare, and am used to being inside the hospital, where there's lots of noise, etc. Last night, I binge watched a series that I had watched years ago, and ate half of a LARGE chocolate bar. eeeks! that's the first time I've done that in months. There is something just something that is upsetting inside of me, that can't be made right.

You are doing a lot! Kudos!
I feel really unfulfilled, and I haven’t even started cleaning for Pesach because my toddler walks around the house with food no matter how many times I cry scream and beg that he shouldn’t.
