I am a sandwich parent. I have two girls 7 and 8. I have my parents and my husbands mother to help look after. Some days I drop the kids off at school and go take care of the folks. It is very taxing. I am trying to find that balance of being there for both generations. It is not easy...

theatre and I are there already. I'm having a very berry tea with crackers, cheese and cherry tomatoes and she's having a joint with some beer and we're both on really comfy recliners on thick pile carpet. we need some help with the decor if anyone is around??
Also, this is going to sound like it's coming out of nowhere... but have you heard of Dream Dinners? I know they are nationwide but I'm not sure if they are in your area or not. I'm addicted. You can make good, healthy pre-prepared meals at the stores, freeze them and then basically pop them in the oven/stove for dinner and they require very little preparation. This might be good for your folks (you can stock up) and for your family when you're in a bind. Just a total random thought and idea that might make your life just a little easier!
Good Luck!
