Really Annoyed This Morning ...

Sorry guys, I just really need a rant!

SAHM here, two kids, almost 7, almost 2.

Got up this morning, came down, kitchen a mess from me cooking last night.

Presumed DH would have sorted it or at least filled the dishwasher and turned it on last night.

I do DHs packed lunch for work and shout up and ask him to bring any glasses/pots from upstairs meanwhile I've told DC1 to get dressed for school numerous times but they are not listening and still in pjs watching tv.

I go upstairs to get ready for the school run and find glasses/pots in DC1 bedroom, DH has taken the flat sheet off our bed and dumped it on the floor and left it there because DC2 leaked in the night apparently. His socks are dumped on the floor too, it's the same every morning, I find myself putting them in the wash basket myself.

DC1 is still not dressed and apparently can't find any socks despite multiple pairs been in the wardrobe.

So I'm shouting loud by now as we are going to be late and I'm taking 2 kids on the school run.

I don't know why I'm writing this, I just feel I could fall out with the world today 🙁

Why are you making your dhs lunch? He's not one of the kids.

You're doing too much and they're taking you for granted.

I'm not sure. I don't really have an answer.

Stop babying your husband, for a start. Stop
picking up his socks and making his lunches.

Surely there was the opportunity for discussion about the dishwasher and the sheet?

Time for a war council. Agree who does what of the household tasks and when. Then do it.

Glasses for water and Calpol dispenser as DC1 has been poorly.

Get back to work, make parenting equal. As an aside why are there 'pots' in the bedroom?
