NO doubt, its hard work and you have a lot on your plate. They do get less demanding as they get older but in a different way. Once they walk they'll be demanding attention too.
Try to get as much help as you can and get stuff done around the house while they sleep. Its exhausting but you can only do your best and some things you'll just have to let slide.
You need time for yourself and your interests; it's so hard when you have a baby to take care of! I work at home (selling books on Amazon. Com) and even that will not always fill the gap I feel at times (I used to be a teacher).
Can someone watch your baby while you get your hair done or take a refreshing nature walk? Being house bound reminds me of a prison sentence!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
