big bear
A bear on a mission!
I don't expect any answers but just need to get it off my chest & I may (or not) feel better.
I've got laundry bags full of clothes to wash & it's an uphill battle. I live in a 2 bed-flat with H & 2 kids so I've got no where to dry them all. I wash loads of clothes & then they don't get dried so have to wash again...I've only so much space to dry them on the radiators/dryers but then I've a 2 year old pulling them down making a mess everywhere. At the moment there is clothes all over the place drying, there's 2 baskets of wet clothes waiting to dry & a load in the washing machine. I so need a house with a garden & washing lines.
My 2.5 year old is really going through the terrible 2's badly. He gets so wound up he punches & bites me & I'm the end of my tether. When i say no & explain why it's no etc he just slaps me & throws a strop. I can't get him to go to bed until at least 10pm (sometimes earlier) even though we're doing the whole reading book, bath etc routine.
My baby has 2 teeth cutting through & is up half the night crying, biting things etc...
I feel as if I'm a crap mother/housewife as others seem to manage with more kids or on their own. I just can't seem to get on top of things. I do have a friend up comes & does a big clean every fortnight & I try to keep it clean by tidying up every night but it's impossible with a 2 year old.
Also to top it all I'm starting a new job on Wed for 3 days a week, what the hell am I going to do if I can't even cope now.
There just seems to be no end in sight & I'm really not coping, I'm tired, ratty & being really nasty to H.
