I am fed up, I am a single mum to 2 (8yr and 2yr old DD's), I work part time in quite a demanding job!
My mum and DP stayed over xmas.........and then the snow started!
I live in a very friendly close, the children play out, in and out of houses, but TBH they are in mine the most (I honestly think it is because I have no P/H here permanently it is somehow deemed more acceptable)! Usually am fine, my DD1 is a sociable child, we have a 3 story town house so can spread out!
But with the snow, the children (4/5 inclding DD1 but not DD2) have been here a lot!! Crisps, drinks, sandwhiches, Wii, movies, toys, games, books etc etc etc. BUT the days I have been working (and no school) not a single mum has offered to have DD1 for me (and I'm to bloody proud/stubborn to ask), so she has had to come to work with me which is fairly stressful!
So still off school today, but looking like back to normal from tomorrow, I am off today but tomorrow I have a 11hour day at work!
I tell DD1 NO guests today, yesterday we had my friends daughter ALL day (2 meals).
We go out this morning do some chores have some lunch, come home and out DD2 down for nap And think peace, I am not feeling so good and am looking forward to a cup of tea and an hour or 2 on the sette in peace and quiet!
WHEN up gallops DD1 waking up DD2 and asking if friends daughter can come over for a few minutes while her DH drops her somewhere , fuckity fuck I bloody drag DD2 everywhere when I need to drop DD1 anywhere,.............I just wanted some peace
I am rubbish at saying no, so she is here, I have locked them in the playroom with a movie under threat to not make a peep, and Dd2 is back asleep!
But it was an hour ago, no sign of mum to get her, and its just not the same is it, I want my house back Can I throw them out in the melting snow do you think
