Life is to busy...

Why is it so hard to just have a nice easy going life. I mean when I was growing up it felt so great,I mean me and my sister went to school,while my mom worked during those hours and my dad was home from work by 5:30 every night, homework was done,dinner was made and then it was free time till bed time. Today it is just not like that and I don't like it. I mean we do so much and yet everynight my mind is still going full speed ahead because I feel as though nothing has been acomplished. I wonder if my mom felt like this back in the day? If she did I would presume it was not as bad as we have it due to the economy being such a joke to live on. My husband is a manager and I stay at home because financially me working would be just to pay for daycare, but really all my thoughts of being a stay at home mom would be awsome  just went out the window,I mean I love my kids and love being here for them through out the day and I work my butt off with the cleaning,cooking,laundry,schooling,pets,the kids in itself,and etc, but really it's still not enough. I mean my husband works so hard to try and support us, and we give up a lot to just make ends meet, but it just does not seem right. I truly hope our children do not have to live this, I hope when they are grown and out on their own they don't have our worries. I hope  that their is hope again,and easy times for our children to live the good life!  I just wish life was not so busy and things were back to the basics. Less is more,and loving yourself and your loved ones is what really matters. So for lack of better words screw everything else!
