I would have held out for a 6 pack of creme eggs if I'd realised

I'm cheap...but not that cheap

awww man - I have never wanted to be a SAHM so much as I do after reading this thread...If I promise to drop down to part time...can I get a kicking too?

When am I scheduled for a kicking?

I am mostly at home. Sometimes I work from home. Sometimes I actually make memories with 4 yr old ds. And sometimes with dd who is 13.

Just now though I am fucking up banana muffins we made along with memories and a fucking mess. I did work this morning though. In my pjs. After thr nursery run. Also in pjs.

I'd have sex with someone NOT to eat a creme egg. bleurch.

DH reckons when times are lean i could be a dominatrix and use the laundry room (or punishment palace as i call it). I could still watch homes under the hammer and just use the punters as a foot stool instead.

Rufus right now just one would suffice here 😂 Or a jar of nutella, whichever is easiest.

my standards have slipped greatly

What I want to know though, are SAHDs really trans SAHMs? Have they made a public declaration that they believe they are a SAHM and so must be? And do they have a separate day for kicking or are they going to insist on having the same rights as us natural born SAHMs?

On the serious, "choice" thing; I'd agree that there's almost some degree of choice, but too often (especially on MN) that choice is regarded as ideological rather than circumstancial. Which makes the bashing far easier...

RE. My allocated kicking; is there a dress code? Is sack cloth and ashes okay? Shall I paint some targets on my knees?

StealthPolarBear · 20/02/2018 13:47

"Although I need to reschedule my kicking, CDC home appointment today so full schedule, sorry!"
The centre for disease control are doing you a home visit? I don't think I want to get close enough to kick you.

My children will be dumped in after school club. They understand the sacrifices we're making as a family to make sure mumsnetters get their kickings.

Mrs fumble I'd maybe post that in style and beauty.

ToffeePennie · 20/02/2018 13:56

Wait what about part time working mums? And those of us on mat leave? Are we excluded from the kicking??

CigarsofthePharoahs · 20/02/2018 14:26

I'm due a kicking.
SAHM, with fibromyalgia and poor mental health. I'm a massive drain on everyone's resources and I had three Gregg's sausage rolls for lunch.

mrsreynolds · 20/02/2018 14:29

I'm back from work watching black sails (some poor pirates are having a shocking time of it!)
I might do some housework tomorrow.
might...

Oreos?
You need a twice. Bite either end off and use it like a straw with a cup of coffee. It works with chocolate fingers too.
Yum.

CigarsofthePharoahs · 20/02/2018 15:48

Twice? Twix! TWIX!!
Stupid phone.
