I have two kids under 5 (under 3 when Covid kicked off) and work a superstressful job from home. Last year was the year my riding plateaued and this year it has fallen off a cliff - I NEVER ride anymore and feel like age is really catching up rapidly (late 40s). I'm worried by the time I ever get any time back (if!), my age/skills/health won't allow me to really ride again. It really sucks. Moral of the story - if you love this life (skiing, riding, being physically active) do NOT have two kids. That, or quit your crappy job and take one with more time off - if possible.
