To really, really hate sleepovers?
Dd had her 11th birthday party yesterday and as usual I accepted that I could not reasonably refuse the annual request for a sleepover. We had the party from 4-7.30 ( not at home and didn't have to host it) then home exhausted to relax...oh no wait...forget that. Back home to start the bloody party all Over again. They settled at around 1am and we're all singing loudly by 7am.
Dh and I work really hard and I find it so hard to basically forgo what feels like the whole weekend's down time. Then today will be a write off due to tiredness.
Now I can see that a more everyday sleepover with one child might be more ok, with fewer sweets , more discipline ( if needed) without feeling a party pooper. But geez... With 2 dds, twice a year is enough.
My dds think I'm mean to as I start to twitch at the mere mention of a sleepover. I just can't switch off when we have overnight visitors really. AIBU? And those of you who host often...why, why, why? ( I can only understand it if you have an only child with a quiet friend,btw).
