That's all I seem to have done all week. And to my fellow blogger. Moan, gripe, moan.
I have had enough of this endless torture of not sleeping through the night. I have forgotten, it's been years since I went to bed and got up at the time I want to. It has been dictated too long. I want to go to bed before 11, but know smallest will wake at 10:50 on the dot and want milk.
I want to then go to bed and stay there until 7.30... but I can guarantee that before 5 am I will have been shouted out of my pit by at least one child. Either crying as she has forgotten it is night time (smallest), nightmares, falling out of bed, cat sneaking onto bed and upsetting the child already there, dog barking, poos, wees and I suspect just generally wanted to pi$$ me off!! And then I can be sure at least one will be bright eyed, bushy tailed and ready to start the day at 6 a.m.!
So sleep deprivation is getting to me. So I moan.
And the washing. It is never ending. Why must they wear so many outfits in one day? Have they not realised that filthy clothes is OK at home?
And cooking. I seem to spend a stupid amount of time in the kitchen. As soon as one meal is finished and tidied up it is time to start another.... How do people keep their kitchens so sparkly clean when they are in constant use?
And the school run. I hate it. Loathe it. But I have a new strategy for that. Heads down, too busy approach!
And why do most of the housewives / mat leavers, I meet in real life not do the internet? How do they survive?
Ultimately, I have come to a conclusion. I have too much thinking time. I need to find a way of keeping my brain more occupied so that these trivial mundane things stop getting on top of me...
......but what? ? ?

Sleep is the key to everything- how you manage with 3 waking at various times in the night is beyond me. I still struggle with 1 who still isn't sleeping through. She isn't allowed out of her room until she hears the alarm in the morning, even if she wakes up in my bed, she still has to go to her room and stay there until the alarm! Poor child- is this mean?!
As for cooking- I dont unless it is in the evening. She gets a sandwich for lunch, nowt else!
I do not understand how people get by without the internet, I am yet to work this one out...maybe they lunch a lot, go to the gym lots or spend hours in the playground after school chatting to parents!
So, my child is ignored in the morning, starved at lunch, and ignored all afternoon in favour of the internet!
But sandwhiches still take so much time to make and still make a big mess! (Or it that the difference between 2 and 4 for lunch?)
Got another dog on holiday here at the moment. At least she is not fussy with the toddler droppings so a little less sweeping is required!
yes I don't know how they manage without the internet either.
When I was at ballet class the other day a man was ther and as incredulous that his daughters playgroup had asked if she had a computer, and when he said no, they said that she needed access to one. He thought that the idea was idiotic as they had no need for the internet.
I guess some people get by without TV's, which I'd find hard too, so in the same way they don't have pcs?
