Offer of help

My lovely parents have offered me some help. They think I have too much on and am looking tired.

I am a single parent, work 2 short and 2 normal days a week and have a hobby business on the side that I enjoy but end up working on till late at night.

I am torn between being upset that they think I can’t cope (I hate asking for help) and being grateful for the offer.

They have offered to pay for a gardener and I already have a cleaner for 3 hours a week.

I don’t know what other help is available. I don’t think I want someone around the house when I’m in as I like my own space and can’t relax. I think I probably need to simplify my life or get my DDs to help more. Any ideas?

That should say “can’t relax with people in the house”.
