How to live - is there a book?

5 hours ago 6

There's so many things that need doing in so little time so how do you manage to have some free time? I have a 9-5 job and there's so much maintenance:

- Work Maintenance (9-5 although have to work in the evenings more often than not because its so busy)

- House Maintenance (cleaning, laundry)

- Car Maintenance (when it decides to fuck up)

- Food Maintenance (food shopping, food prep, cooking)

- Money Maintenance (investments, bills)

- Wife Maintenance (keeping her happy, sex)

- Kids Maintenance (keeping the little shits entertained & safe)

- Friends maintenance (keeping in touch but not many left!)

- Parent maintenance (In there 70's so need help now and then)

- Self Maintenance (gym, mental health, hobbies)

- TV/Film maintenance (think i'm stuck in 2015 barely watched anything recent)

6am - 6pm is commuting to/from + work (hybrid office) - Monday - Friday

Makes Tea (British)

7pm - 8pm - Exercise or Work (thank god my wife cooks)

8pm - 9pm - Eat - inc. washing dishes etc (that can't go in dishwasher)

9pm - 10pm - Getting kids to bed!

10pm - 11pm Free time (TV)

11pm - 6am - Sleep

Do you guys basically do everything on a weekend because we are both absolutely exhausted by that point. We do the washing and shopping on a weekend and do activities for the kids but we don't really do anything for ourselves.

I liked gaming before I had kids but just don't have time. I need the sleep as well so can't do late nights.
