Or raising kids. As someone who excels at hard manly thing, but does hard womanly things badly for a living instead, I have different perspective. I don't do it because I insist, I do it because that is what my family needs me to do. My sisters all make it look easy. But they don't have 3/4 of their brain designing novel communication protocols and cathedrals on Mars 100% of the time.

I was in the same position you're in. 😂 At home with the little kids, but mentally off in engineering land. Teaching math and rhetoric classes for homeschoolers, and catechism classes, was my only reprieve.

I wasn't bad at it, but... yeah. The other women were better. I'm better at not sleeping with the gardner or blowing the milk money on shoes, tho.

Last time I was at home with the kids, I got into Bitcoin. 😂 Staying true to type.

I am excellent at not blowing milk money on a gardener. I rake my own leaves thank you very much.

Also. Doing things you are bad at has it's own rewards. Here is my current predicament and why I can neither code nor vacuum.

Oh

How

My wife claims he left behind a trail of broken hearts at the doctor's office yesterday.

I've got to teach him not to promise in smiles that which he cannot pay in snuggles.

I so wish I could have more kids. I've got the worst baby rabies, sometimes. 😭

You can come watch ours. My wife and I would tentatively like to plan a date sometime in our 40's.

I sometimes babysit my nephews. They're adorable.

Just occured to me, that I dealt with not doing hard manly stuff by doing hard womanly stuff.

Can't engineer?

Teach logic lessons.
