Lately I've been getting what I can only describe as 'irritated' by everything. Mainly noise and mess at home. I know it doesn't really matter but I find myself getting hugely wound up by things like having to pick up the kids stuff for what feel like the millionth time, or brushing the kitchen floor.
The noise of the tv gets me going, as does the kids bickering. All little stuff but I get really irritated by it all and can't just seem to let it go on in the background. I try to ignore it all, and then do a big tidy up at night but I just can't seem to do it.
I feel like I'm constantly shouting 'turn that down' 'stop arguing' 'pick that up' (and turning into my mother!)
I'd love to be more laid back and let things wash over me more. Any tips?
