To suggest a MN surrogate scheme

[splendidisolation]

Whereby a MNer "with her shit together" can "adopt" a MNer who is #failingatlife, forming a supportive "mother and daughter" relationship that transcends geographical boundaries.

I need Laiste's offer please

I've my shit together but I'm on AIBU because I'd rather judge people instead of help them.

Nobody needs help to get their shit together, illness etc excepted.

They just have to want to do it. Doing it for them makes it worse. Then they think 'someone else will do it' and ignore it even more.

My house is together but my job is going to shit. I could sort it out, I'm not daft. But I just... won't.

I'll swap meal planning/cooking/ironing for proper health and fitness advice.
Oh, and I'll pay anyone who knows a secret way to stop tantrums forever!

I have my shit together re organising school mornings, even out of the ordinary ones like today, involving a birthday, including taking chocolate buttons for everyone in the class, packed teas for after school club and PE for both DC.

I need help with being shit at housework.

Mother Anecdoche? I moved to the other side of the world from my mother, would you like me to sort that out for you? .

I love this.

I'm good at career and friends, adequate at children and shit at domestic.

lougle we hired a gardener and he dug up my potatoes despite me pointing them out and saying "those are potatoes - do not dig them up!".

@splendidisolation I'll take your offer!

I could with someone to help organise my toddler damaged home.

In return I can make a plethora of exciting cocktails and will tell you how nice your hair looks today.

Hmm not sure where I fit here I used to be organised at paperwork (work),household admin, keeping the kids and DH (pretty much kid no 3) organised, cooking, place clean but a little chaotic now it's all gone to shit, so actually bottom row please

See, @ikabod, I knew someone would know what I was talking about

I need someone to follow me around mumsnet and tell me to stop arsing around and get some proper work done. Except for this time. Any takers?

@AgentProvocateur, you're just stealth boasting about the size of your garden, aren't you? Who has room for a swamp and a jungle, huh?

Does anyone truly ever have their shit together?

The pyramid is making me think of Maslow and his buggering hierarchy of needs. 😂

upperlimit stop arsing around and get some proper work done. 😉

Thanks Evil, I think I am beyond help though.

We should be like the starving poets and cheat our way up the pyramid.

😂

I'm in bed. It's 1.30 in the afternoon. The pyramid needs a basement for me.

I'm envious.

In my defence I've just had surgery

I'll offer meal planning and batch cooking services in return for someone dealing with the ridiculous amount of ironing that needs tackling.

Has anyone else seen the advert from Gok Wan? He's offering work wardrobe help.
