i'm at breaking point.

[alexsmum]

have just spent the afternoon at the party from hell.40+ kids running around screaming,while black lace played in the background.both ds's ended up crying.have now come home and i'm craving quiet and the kids are just driving me mad.I've reached that stage where their very prescence is annoying me.
dh is still away with work..should be home in the early hours of tomorrow.
really feel like i'm going to snap and start screaming....

put the tv on?

give them popcorn

take a coffee break

feel the better

t.v is on..
got a cuppa...
still gonna kill them...

I get like that sometimes, you can physically feel your blood boiling..............countdown to bedtime

Put them in the bath, lay on the floor in there (if there's room!) and relax for ten minutes while they play. Then glass of warm milk, into bed, one story and lights out by 6.30! FAB

indeed waterfall. like you said i can feel my blood boiling.having to be very controlled or will start screaming at them..

absolutely no chance kbear.
they'd be awake at 10.00pm then.

Put a dvd on that you know they like.

then go and "wash up" on your own.

are you still alive then?

yes. i went upstairs and started tidying ds's bedroom and just left them to it.
to be honest they weren't being that bad, just annoying me by being iykwim!
