I've learned that every working mom is a superwoman.
For many women going back to work a few months after having a baby is overwhelming and unmanageable. As strange as it may seem things get even more difficult for a working mom after the second and third baby arrive. By that time the romance of being a modern 'superwoman' wears off and reality sets in.
Dusting is a good example of the futility of trying to put things right. As soon as you dust the fact of your next dusting has already been established.
