enjoy that bottle Hun, don't worry about what your house looks like, and the kids probably don't mind noodles. Let it all sink in. I'm having a shitty time too, not the same, but it's mine. Let's both pick ourselves up, maybe tomorrow or maybe the next day. Don't be ashamed to ask for help. Was that cliche enough? I'm gonna go back to crying now...
2 minute noodles won't kill kids if they have them 2 nights in a row ;)
I've got my period, so feeling a bit
Bleurgh, desperately want to have a baby with my boyfriend but he doesn't want anymore :( watching The Office birth episode hasn't helped!
Last week I had $40 to feed my family of 4 for the week, I cried, I stressed, I worried but I made it!! Today is pay day so I'm feeling a little triumphant, we are not hungry, healthy, still smiling and most of no matter how hard things get we always have each other and I couldn't want for more then that really (except a little extra income lol but that's not doable at the moment). Hang in there IM there's always a rainbow after the rain, hugs from a fellow IM who knows just how your feeling xx
We call them pantry weeks :) where we have to make do with what we have mostly.
Sitting up at 2 am because I am just stressing over stuff. My future, wondering if I will ever be employed because I have been a full time mum, haven't really got a dollar to my name, got bills coming out of my bazinga lol...wondering who won the $40 million ozlotto...who gives a shit if your kids eat noodles for the next week...as long as they have food in their belly, a roof over their heads and they are loved, you are doing a great job...we all go through tough times, I feel for you losing your job. Drink up and forget about things for a while if you can. The house work can wait!
Business is failing, hubby has to get a second job which means we'll basically never see him, pregnant with our third and my back is killing me, kids keep throwing things on the floor and I swear they walk around with pockets full of crumbs waiting for me to turn my back, haven't eaten all day because there's hardly any food in the house, hubby is lying in bed sick and my youngest managed to get hold of an energy drink can and drink the dregs :-/ lol so things are feeling pretty crappy right now but, our motto has always been as long as we have each other we'll be okay. So..I guess I'm doing okay :P
Ah it's good to vent sometimes. Hope you enjoyed your champagne!
My laundry is a mountain of clothes, my bedroom is a walk in wardrobe with an empty cupboard, my Loungeroom is an obstacle course, my kitchen a disaster zone and I'm sitting here drinking a coffee on Facebook wishing i was over exaggerating and someone else would come find my house for me!!! A nap is more inviting but with an energetic 5 year old a sleepless 5 month old, nothings happening here!!
Working to many hours, trying to shed some weight, lazy husband who doesn't work and doesn't help out, ready to leave but scared of the after
Well living with ocd is killing my life with a teenager and 2 year old. I seriously forget what it's like to sit I'm constantly scrubbing or packing to go out so they can't destroy anything.
Being a single mum is hard money is a issue but an extra set of hands would be great.
I budget everything to I think 2 minute noodles is fine its better than nothing as for the champagne score lol.
US mothers do put so much pressure on our selves don't we
