Do yoy live in a grumpy home or happy home?

I think of myself as a cheerful soul but am beginning to realise that this may not be true. My kids are hard work and my dog is really hard work and it is all a bit miserable. I don't think I am as fun as I imagine.

I need to sort this out. Has anyone else been in this situation?

If writing is not going well, I’m like the Antichrist on a particularly bad day.

Fairly happy I'd say. We laugh a lot. It's not perfect, but it's generally good.

I grew up in a grumpy, miserable home and I didn't want my kids to go through the same thing. I'm thankful they haven't.

Happy as I don’t have to share it with a partner.

Grumpy.
Everyone thinks I'm a bubbly lively hyper active person.
However I live with Mr shouty sweary!
It takes away any positive vibes.

Varies. Kids have left home but they come over a lot then it's nearly always fun filled. We get on really well and laugh a lot. When it's just me my husband it bubbles along ok and we have a laugh but he can be grumpy and I've absolutely no time for it.

We live in a happy home. There’s lots of love and laughter. We all love and appreciate each other. That said our child is a grown up, so our early year family stresses are behind us.

Definitely grumpy, but then it's just me and I'm menopausal sooooo...
