This was such a powerful acknowledgement of how I've felt the last 4+ years. It's exhausting constantly trying different lists, chore charts, and still not feeling seen or that anyone else cares about the state of the house. Thank you, I'm definitely going to try the notice and do approach!
Thank you for sharing this! Feeling acknowledged, seen, and validated is critical and it’s in short supply. What you mentioned about all the trying— that’s the part right there that clicked for me with notice and do- the frustration of doing even more and trying even harder all of which was basically increasing the invisible labor I was already doing. Love to hear how it goes. It is a longer process but so much more worth it at least in my experience.
