To expect whole family just to Feck Off and give me 30 seconds peace!

[BeeEm]

AAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG. have had just about enough of bloody people never ever letting me alone at all, ever.
every second of every feckin day. every time i sit down one of the bloody kids or animals sits on top of me. i can't bloody move without having to shove something off me. its driving me up the wall.
am feeling slightly hormonal and when i sat down here to look at sunny pictures of happy holiday cottages they all bloody follow me in including dh and the bloody dog.
aaarrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
have now just reduced sweet angelic dd1 to tears for telling her to go away. have broken my vow to let difficult disturbed dd2 attach herself to me at all times if it makes her feel better. and it's not really dh's fault he has to go back to work tomorrow leaving me alone with them for the whole next fing week with no respite at all.........................
so is it really that unreasonable to want just a few small tiny seconds peace to wallow in my hormones? is it?

and breathe

(you're normal you know )

Apparantly it is unreasonable...
I am sick of being PAWED AT all day long too. I think this is why some smart women go back to work soon after having kids.

OMG Bah!!! I'd go mental at him!

Not unreasonable at all, Bee; can you lock yourself in the garden shed?!

I lock myself into MN

DD1 now not speaking to me. have changed all our beds and put on a load of washing - still feeling hormonal. is it too early for a small glass. of gin.
of course the reasonable thing to do would be to take a deep breath, smile, be nice, read a lovely bedtime story, smile some more, tuck the little darlings into beddy bys then pour a small one. as it is i really want to bring the ice and bottle in here with me. so i may do that,

Oh God I know just how you feel. I have been the Mother From Hell today because I can stand no more of the constant noise and the constant 'Mum can you do this,' ' Mum look at me' and the inevitable trooping of family members in to the bathroom as soon as I retreat there for a bath.

I made the mistake of agreeing to join in Monopoly this afternoon. Three fecking hours it took, and try as I might I couldn't go bankrupt.

LOL at the image of children, DH and dogs all following you. We have no dog but DP definitely follows me in the manner of a large dog whenever he is underemployed (which is often).

and and RubyRioja's husband unscrewing the door. I'd wait on the other side with a cast-iron frying pan if DP tried that one. Mind you, we've been living in this house for over a year and neither toilet nor bathroom has a lock - enabling DS2 to wander in when I'm in the bath, cop a load of my tits (he's still bf-ing) and attempt to climb in with me, usually still in his pyjamas.

I sometimes lock myself in the conservatory, which has the bonus of being double-glazed, meaning that I can see my children crying hysterically on the other side, but if I lift my paper in front of my face, I can't hear them.

I fantasis about a little house, just for me....

No mess, no noise, just silence and lots of books

me too fizzbuzz, was just having that daydream today actually.

not so much of the pawing here - but the constant yattering and nagging - I love them all more than I could ever express - but sometimes I wish they came with a mute button!!

I have that exact same daydream -- just me and the dog in a little tiny house with a tiny garden. Just like Auntie Mabel, but without the need to explain things to children.

I would be able to keep on top of all my chores in the morning, and then spend the afternoon tucked up in an armchair by the fire reading novels. And no one would speak to me. Ever.

Sounds blissful to me threadworm, I'm lucky to even get 2 mins on MN, and there is ALWAYS noise in our house. No escape anywhere. I can hear 2 tv's, music, and dd babbling her head off....and that is a good dau

I pine for silence, and wish it was available on the NHS

I get this, you finally bundle the 3 littlies to bed and then the cat attaches himself to me - arghhhhhhhh, if you stand up he just hangs on, if you mn he sits across your wrists/hands - arghhhhhhhhhhhh.

My dog is like this. He has a special dance across my visual field, sock in mouth, which he reserves for the moment that I finally shed the children and sit down.

when dh comes home and puts talk sport on as well - arghhhhhhhhhhhhh, or they go to bed and then he puts the cd player on - when will he understand I just want silence.......

I truly think I had some sort of auditory-overload related breakdown this Christmas. I got to the point where my dad's endless anecdotes, DH's addiction to 24-hour radio/TV, PSPs, Nintendo DSs, bickering children, all combined to make me feel as if a cheesegrater was being raked repeatedly across my brain. I have shrieked and bitched at the family and it is all because I want some silence.

Threadworm...I feel like that everyday.
I'm a teacher, and it's constant noise all day.

Then I get home......every evening at about 6.00pm, I have to hide in the bedroom to recover for 1/2 an hour.

That cheese grater thing describes it perfectly
