This is just all the stuff I don't have time for after kids.

reminder that it takes a village to raise a child, it's so fucked up that people are expected to raise kids on their own and just have no free time

My work moved me away from family, not much I can do about that for the next 3 years.

So, you live on a desert island? because if you don't, and you don't, there is plenty you can do about it... I guarantee that wherever you are, there is a supportive community to be a part of.

Oh yeah I'm part of a couple of fantastic support communities, but those take more time, not give it back to you. The independent time without a child is what has evaporated.
