Rosario, for me to feel like superwoman would require some cross dressing so I can't relate entirely (not that I wouldn't cross dress but that's a different thread...) but I do know the feeling of being overwhelmed by your own household chores. We have three kids and we both work full time. No matter how hard both of us work, there's still more to do. Our house is in different states of chaos from day to day and it's never, ever over. My conclusion is that this is just how life goes.
Unfortunately for us, we get to deal with life while also dealing with a debilitating illness. It's not easy and it's not fair but it is what we're expected to do. My only advice is to make a little time to take care of yourself too.
Your friend in the trenches of parenthood,
Cyran0
