Today was my son's 6th birthday party. It was in a soft play place and I was totally stressed out about it I don't know why.
Firstly, I had a friend's son staying over the night before. He is really rude and bad mannered and they stayed up till about 10 pm chatting, then were up at 6.30am so that didn't help.
Then my oldest friend who is my son's godmother had asked whether she could leave her son. I had hoped she would stay and help as I am on my own and only had my mum (plus one other parent I had asked to stay) to help wit 15 boys. She asked if she could drop her son at my house first but I couldn't take him as I already had my mum, my brother's son and my son's friend in the car. She then rang about 5 minutes before I left asking where the place was and I said it was on the invitation as I didn't know the address off by heart. When she arrived to pick her son up she grabbed him and said 'hurry up, we've got to go'. She was on her way back to another party where she had been during my son's party.
The parent who I had asked to help had got lost on the way to the party so was an hour late.
My mum stressed me out as she arrived so late that I was almost on my way out of the house despite me asking her to come early.
Finally my next door neighbours who I have been friends with for several years have all of a sudden become friends with other neighbours and see them all the time without inviting us. I have tried inviting them all over together but between us there are 7 kids under 6 and it is too much. So I feel really left out.
Just feeling miserable and in a totally bad mood.
