Burnt Out at work

Can't talk about much, since it is hush hush.

But something got redesigned (mechanically) on what i work on at work. So the software needs a big change. And this isn't a lets do this right, take our time, test it exstensively thing. It is lets do this fast and right. There are 3-5 of us on this. For the past 3 weeks. We have gone through so many ideas that are not completely working. Some are great and show promise then end up blah.

I am just burnt out on this. In general (not every day, but most) get in at 7, leave at 5. Get Evie home, feed, bath, play time, bed routine, etc. Have dinner myself (which is unhealthy mostly due to time). Work from 7:30 to 9ish. Sleep, wake up at 5:30/6. Repeat. DH is also working on this issue, so we talk about it. He calls me when I am home taking care of Evie. So also talking work while making dinner, eating, and playing with baby.

Just ugh. Too much stress and work. 

The other thing is, since weekends are so busy, parties, friends in the area, etc, all errands are after work.

Talking to someone who works part time, yeah maybe in 6 months I'll think about it.  

ETA: I just needed to vent. Got really sick on Sunday and just needed some time alone so left work early and came home for 2 hours to chill / relax. Just one of those design issues that we knew might happen and project managers want it NOW. You know the saying, cheap, fast, and done right. So hard to get all three of those.
