right.

park them in front of a dvd now.

lock front door so no one can go anywhere.

run a bath.

get in.

have a cry.

wash your hair (this ALWAYS HELPS)

dry it and get some clothes on that you like.

deep breath.

then get them all in buggy, go to phone box phone best friend/mum/sister/whoever will help you and make you feel better and tell them that you want them to come out for lunch with you and kids. go to cafe.

that is my plan.

you are human. I hate ds sometimes. doesn't mean i don't love him.

Oh Meesa, that sounds like an awful situation.Have you anyone you can email to come round and visit you and help to sort out the phones? Is your mum local enough to visit? Will they settle in front of the TV for a while?

meesa · 22/08/2007 12:16

glammarjoram · 22/08/2007 12:19

You're having a bad day, we all have them. Sophable had some good advice. Get yourselves out of the house. 14 months can be a difficult time. How long have you been feeling like this?

glammarjoram · 22/08/2007 12:20

sorry, didn't see about the parcel.

glammarjoram · 22/08/2007 12:21

Is your DH at work? Can he come home early if you really need him to?

jabberwocky · 22/08/2007 12:25

Try putting a towel in the dryer for a few minutes and then let him snuggle with it. Worked great for a friend of mine.

totaleclipse · 22/08/2007 12:26

Is there anyone on MSN at the moment who you know? ask them to call your mum for you, or email someone you know is at thier pc to call her for you, dh perhaps.

meesa · 22/08/2007 12:26

messa -= I lost it too last week and palmed my two off, one to MIL and one to my DM.
I didn't feel proud of myself for doing it but I knew I'd reached my breaking point.
Don't be too hard on yourself. Remember you have to have some really crap days so that you can recognise and enjoy the good ones

meesa · 22/08/2007 12:31

medised worked fast DSis asleep now

moljam · 22/08/2007 12:31

meesa,we all lose it,children are hard work at times.dont be hard on yourself.

FoghornLeghorn · 22/08/2007 12:33

Bless him. There are lots of bugs going around atm, maybe he is coming down with something.
Don't beat yourself u about it - I lose it with DD far too often, for the last 3-4 weeks I have been trying really hard when I about to shout at her to stop myself and talk to her calmly.
It's hard being a parent sometimes

meesa · 22/08/2007 12:34

thats why i left him downstairs - i didnt want to shout at him,

meesa · 22/08/2007 12:36
