It's a lot. I do have a lot of downtime for my job. So I'm basically getting paid to take care of her and run the house. Um, what does she do for a living? Um, she, uh, um, She's a, she works in skilled nursing. Okay. All right. Um, so I, um, you know, I took all this on and so I'm working full time. I'm taking care of the baby full time, doing all the household chores, um,

And I just feel like I'm kind of lost somewhere. Like I, like, uh, where am I? Um, and then kind of to add onto this, um, I'm legally blind. Um, I can see I have, um, I'm basically nearsighted essentially, but I can't drive. So there's no, you know, there's no going out on the weekend. There's no me driving, um, anywhere or doing anything like that. So I, I hate to use the word like prisoner.

Right. But some days I wake up and I do feel that way. Sure. Um, and so before all this started, I kind of, my social, uh, kind of outlet was, was video games because obviously I can't just get up and go to the bar or go to bowling every weekend or it was, it's very difficult for me to do those things even with Uber and whatever, you know,

So I was always... That's kind of always been my social outlet. That's been my mental outlet to just shut everything else off and go blow stuff up for a couple hours or whatever. And I feel like now that's just completely gone. And I feel horrible for feeling that. I feel selfish for wanting that time. It's just... I hope I'm making sense. Yeah, totally.

Yeah. And it's just been, it's just been a lot. And I try and power through, you know, I do the normal guy thing, right? Like you've talked about dozens of times, like just power through, like that's, that's our culture now, um, is that we're, that we're expected to do that with little or no, um, you know, thanks or a little, little to no, you know, you know, appreciation.
