I am exactly the kind of mum I didn't want to be. I am a single mum of one georgeous dd but sadly I am not enjoying it as much as I'd like. I work 25 hours in a reasonably stress- free job but for not much money and not in what I am qualified to do which frustrates me.
In the mornings I am tired and grumpy and have to chivvy dd along to get changed. In the evenings I am tired and grumpy and have no pateince for my poor little dd. I end up shouting at her a lot or just flopping in front of the computer whilst she watches a dvd. We do do some fun things togather; we go on day trips and she has friends over. Tonight we were going to make a ginger bread house together but I ran out of golden syrup and we couldn't do it.
I love how children are so cute but I find the lack of speed and efficiency soooo frustrating.

Hi op. I'm not dissimilar to you. I feel so guilty a lot if the time but I make a lot of time for cuddles and I'm trying my best not to be grumpy and constantly remind myself that I need to be patient. It's really not easy. Im still looking for the answers.

You're not alone is what I'm trying to say.
