I am a woman on the edge.
We have done 1000 fun things and yet still the requests come thick and fast… can we do this? Can we go here? Can we do that? Can we have… can we have… can we have… ARGHHHH

It’s at the point where If I hear Mummyyyyyy with a raised intonation then I’m packing a bag and fucking off.

I just want to drink a coffee and have 10 minutes to mumsnet without having to fulfill any fucking requests from any fucker.

I have another two weeks of this. And I’ve already been super patient for 4 weeks 😬😬😬

Summer holidays are too long.
I think they were originally that length so the children could help with the harvest rather than miss school

Ours went back on Monday, I still have the toddler at home and it’s a full time job. It’s only 11:30 and I’m already looking for places to hide

I’ve only got solidarity at this point. I was already scrapping the barrel of my best ‘mumming’ after lockdowns/home schooling, this well has truly run dry! I crave silence.

Thankfully dd is booked into a club next week because I’m on a thin thread with my house getting trashed from play dates or standing around in the park.

Yes! That’s what my kids need; to be put to work in some fields. Some fields far far away from me.
