when he comes back home in the evening and receiving him at
the door. She also makes sure that she helps out with her
children's homework everyday. "I need to calm myself. I don't
have a manager anymore, so now I'm my own everything. Then
I'm the person who stands at the door when my husband comes
home from work, waiting to rub his feet," The Mirror quoted
her as saying. "And I'm the person who helps my kids with
their homework and puts them to bed. I'm exhausted. That's
my problem now. I no longer have time to be creative," she
