I am feeling fed up today. I work part time and usually have Fridays off but it is a busy time and we spent the day at a university open day for my ED which was great but things are piling up.
None of my 3 children do a great deal around the house and obviously create mess but I feel resentful as my ED is out the whole weekend (working, parties) and she cannot understand why I get ratty and tearful about the amount that needs doing. The YD who is 16 isn't much better either.
I know I could say to hell with it and leave it but I just want my house to look reasonable. The washing alone is never ending and I would like them to do some ironing (their own).
Both my dd's are in 6th form and I want them to do well. However ED were not great and I think it is because she does too much socialising. 18th every weekend it seems. DH does help a bit but he works at the weekend and although off today is tired as he did the driving yesterday.
It is my first week back after the Summer so maybe I need to get into a routine but I am not sure how much more I can take. My son has just moaned at me because he want fajitas and I have told him to do the 'bloody' shopping if he doesn't like my food. not good. not very pleased with myself.
