I go to school at a major university. I live in a 3 bdrm apt with my fiance, with whom I have a 2 year old with. I'm going to school to be a school teacher, but I can't BREATHE! I'm suffocating and just simply overwhelmed. My fiance consistantly calls me lazy despite the fact that I work, go to school on Tues and Thurs from 8am - 4pm (thats five classes back to back NO BREAK inbetween any of them) , and take care of our two year old son. Instead of coloring and playing with my son, my fiance would rather me clean house and have a meal prepared by the time he gets home (ranging anywhere from 4:30pm to 7pm - depending on what time he gets home). He's honestly a good man, but I'm hurt by his words and his lack of understanding. I need perspective and I need to know what I can do to cope with the tsunami of work that is drowning me.

I know teachers have an extremely high workload with little payoff and I'm afraid I'm not up for the job, though I love the profession.

Tell me what you have done to change the face of humanity - have you impacted other people's lives for the better? If you have, tell me about how affecting these people's lives has affected yours, in return.

I know this question has already been answered but I want some fresh new answers. Yes, I AM choosing to fix the reception dinner myself...I was thinking about fixing all the entrees and some of the sides three days prior to the big day in disposable chaffing dishes, freeze em up, and then heat them up for the reception? Pros/Cons/Different ideas completely are welcome. Please no sarcastic answers :)
