I totally sympathize - I actually just went to a great parenting seminar put on by PFN and the speaker was Lynne Reeves Griffin, RN, MEd who wrote Negotiation Generation - great book by the way for parents! ANd she said the one thing she hears over and over from parents is "This (parenting) is HARD" her response, "Yea, it is." It is not easy and you are not alone! It's harder steill when friends without kids think they have the parenting thing all worked out! My suggestion - #1 make friends with other parents and #2 go on a girls vacation for a week and leave your husband home (probably wishful thinkning! at least in my house!)
