A family member has invited themselves for an overnight stay tomorrow with less than 48 hours notice.

I'm on earlies tomorrow, Friday and Saturday and I have to get the spare room ready, get food in and make the place vaguely presentable.

They'll be here when I'm at work for most of the day.

I've sent them my only spare key to let themselves in.

They're self employed and forget that even though I'm part time, I can't just drop everything to attend to their needs.

Joining in and I'm soo fucking sick of it all at the moment. Works a bloody nightmare, I have a sociopathic Director who is bullying witch, I have had a proper day off in months. I worked all day, no lunch break, legged out the door to pick up the kids, got home, had to clean the flaming kitchen before I could cook, dinner made - I burnt it!! Ate diner felt my normal sickness after it, did the homework's whilst the laptop is firing up, wrote a report, sent the kids to bed, finished work at 10... still loads I haven't done - cue a bollocking tomorrow.

I have a large family, I love them all to bits, but bloody hell why the fuck can't they pick up socks/crisp packets/yoghurt pots ever. There is half a sodding toilet roll on my living room at the moment - wtf. DH is constantly away from work and seems to think I can magic everything, the house is a bomb site as I'm the only fucking one who seems to do anything. The extended relatives didn't want me going to a funeral, and then bitched to every fucker after wards re why I didn't go.... I haven't slept properly in a month, when I eat I vomit or get a bad pains, I've had so many fucking tests (that I have to schedule in my oh so bloody few non working hours). Got to go for more bloody scans as they can't work out what is wrong with my insides...... I can't complain, I can't moan, I have to be all fucking lightness all the fucking time & I'm loosing it raaaaaaaaaaaah and no I can't fucking even manage paragraphs at the moment. Ahhh that actually does feel a bit better.

@Arnoldthecat can I get a ticket on that plane, sunshine and cocktails please, lying on a sun bed and being waited on....

123bananas · 12/12/2018 23:18

Working 50 hours this week and so far this week I have also worked until 11 every night completing uni work on top. Feeling nauseous with abdo pain all day, but can't afford to be ill so just soldiering through. Kids making mess so that the house that was tidy at the weekend now looks like a bombsite. Dc3 managed to wedge a toy under the sliding patio doors so we couldn't lock them and nearly had to shell out for someone to take them off. Missing all the children's Christmas performances this week due to work (although that could be a blessing Xmas Hmm) . Dc1 also told me about her need for an outfit for said performance the night before ffs. Dc2 is also poorly and likely to be up tonight with her asthma.

Roll on the weekend.

codswallopandbalderdash · 12/12/2018 23:30

Can I join? I was up till midnight wrapping xmas presents last night. Today i did the school run, ran into work, worked my arse off because I was late, struggled back to school (45 min commute), had playdate I had organised, cooked dinner, did bath and bedtime, then did washing and sorted out bags, clothes and, lunches for tomorrow etc etc. DH has been at conference all day today (i.e. sitting on arse, drinking coffee, eating tiny pastries and networking). He got in at 7pm had dinner then sat in front of the telly moaning about Brexit then fucked off to bed at 10.30 saying he was exhausted.

screamingTuesday · 13/12/2018 00:10

The fucking iron just split water all over the only clean uniform, now desperately trying to dry it for the morning. The teenager who didn't want to eat the burnt dinner is doing a Kevin in the kitchen "nothing to eat".... it's past midnight .... Want to go to bed but need to bleach the toilet... dinner didn't stay down again..., another day and another repeat tomorrow ... pass me the boarding pass.

canigetaliein · 13/12/2018 00:35

Well I have a half decorated tree, not one present wrapped & loads to still buy. Have a pile of cards to write, I’m ill but I have 2 christmas parties this week. Too fat for my clothes even though there is no food in the house & obvs I desperately need to do an online shop. Oh & need a secret santa present for tmw.

April241 · 13/12/2018 00:48

Yes yes yes. Working practically full time (dropped one shift a month which I’m picking back up at a new job in the new year) looking after toddler twins, trying to keep my house looking semi normal. It’s driving me absolutely nuts.

Lavenderdays · 13/12/2018 11:30

ScreamingTuesday,
I'm sorry but you have made me laugh reading your posts - obviously not about your health issues, i'm sorry about that and I hope it is sorted soon...but the toilet roll and various packets thing, yep, can so relate! In my house it's my middle dc that causes a lot of the mess; toys, cardboard boxes and trails of clothes of all descriptions everywhere, house is becoming a bit grimy as well as messy now, so need to crack on and get it sorted...would much rather be propped up on that sun lounger!

JoyofSticks · 13/12/2018 11:43

Swearing's allowed on MN. I once read a post where the poster had written "she's a f***ing cunt" Grin Grin Grin

JoyofSticks · 13/12/2018 11:44

Sick of the cunting sh*t.

screamingTuesday · 13/12/2018 12:00

@Lavenderdays I'm glad it's not just me, and I'm glad it made you laugh. I think we need one of these boards permanently. Genuinely felt so much better for having a rant. I bet that bloody toilet roll is back in the living room tonight... gremlins 😂

Lavenderdays · 13/12/2018 14:21

And also...the empty toilet roll left in the toilet, with no replacement! DH is turning our kitchen into a brewery with his wine making antics (including lots of empty wine bottles that he has stored up) that are now just sitting there on the kitchen worktop where they've been for days, making us look like we have alcohol issues to anyone who just happens to pop in. Have just navigated a hot water bottle and a slinky toy (I think that's what it is called), that have been left lying randomly on the landing plus that cardboard box that I said dc2 could keep and play with in the lounge for the time being, is definitely multiplying! Gah, what time does the plane leave?

Arnoldthecat · 13/12/2018 18:20

Well thank fuck its over for this week. Three days off until i start it all over again... Spain or Greece...? Lets make it one way,,,we could all just rent a villa together,,,

screamingTuesday · 13/12/2018 18:45

The toilet roll is back and on the bloody coffee table....why just why.

JustWingingLifeAsUsual · 13/12/2018 19:03

Yep. I feel you! Same old shit, just a different fucking day.

JustWingingLifeAsUsual · 13/12/2018 19:06

I think I need some good sex to get me in a better mood again but my husband is at work lol he will be too tired by the time he goes home Sad

Arnoldthecat · 14/12/2018 10:35

Im sure you could inflame him....

FaFoutis · 14/12/2018 10:40

I was utterly fucking sick of it until yesterday when a I was suddenly hit by a good mood. It might be hysteria due to over-juggling, lack of sleep and migraine medication.
I will be sick of it again later on I expect. It is nice to hear that others feel the same. It's lonely being fucking sick of it in a sea of smiling faces (who are probably also fucking sick of it).

IceniSky · 14/12/2018 10:45

I was thinking in the shower why does everyone do this and wondering whether there a community I could join that doesn't involved the work, school run, work, chores routine! Life just seems to be about working to get cash for a home that needs tidying. Any time in the evening is spent thinking about getting up at 5 for it all to start again. Feel like I am limping to the end of the year. Even nice things like events or relatives staying just stress me out because it is extra to sort or think about.

I just as to catch my own fish, grow my own veg and focus on DD!

IceniSky · 14/12/2018 10:47

*want.

I think consumerism and the internet is making life less satisfying!

KellyMarieTunstall2 · 14/12/2018 11:12

I'm joining you all. I'm at home I have 2 smalls and an 8 year old, plus I support my husband's business. I'm sick of menial domestic and admin chores , im sleep deprived because of a baby who wont settle for more than 2 hours I'm constantly on the edge of losing my shit. I've organized lots of Xmas activities this weekend and a Xmas do, and now the kids have a vomiting bug so it's all gone to shit. I love my kids, and I know deep down I'm very fortunate, but Jesus, I'm so fucking fed up.

LadyFlumpalot · 14/12/2018 11:23

My mum died in July, my grandma is in end of life care presently, I can't go to my work Xmas meal because the school nativity is at the same time and I am fucking fed right up of just EVERYTHING.

I'm in project support so I get my name whined at me several thousand times a day with stupid questions attached. I pick the kids up and get "mummy" whined at me several thousand times an hour til I cajole/threaten them into bed. DH comes home, declares he's had a hard day, cracks a beer open and starts trying to paw at me. Fuck off. I'm touched out. I'm not a sexual being. I'm an overtired, stressed out middle aged mum. Fuck off!!

jessstan2 · 14/12/2018 11:26

Yes, used to feel exactly the same. Life does get easier as you get older though. I know - everything comes too late. Now what I do is try to ensure less hardship for the next generation and hope they will do the same for their children.

QuestionableMouse · 14/12/2018 11:41

@WTFIsAGleepglorp you can lock the bins. I do it to mine. Bit of a pain in the arse but it stops piss takers!
