i feel like all i do all day long is follow my children around picking up after them. sure, i should have them clean up after themselves. but then i find myself stomping around the house screaming at them to pick up their mess because if i only tell them once it is not taken seriously, twice and they consider it something to get around to when they have the time, three times and they start hiding from me, by the fourth time they are wondering why i am screaming. so four times for each kid times five it means i am asking 20 times before it gets picked up. ACK!! this goes for brushing teeth, making beds, cleaning kitchen, laundry, getting dressed, feeding animals, picking up poop, going to bed, putting away bikes....as you can see the list goes on and on. so i feel like i am yelling all day long and picking up after them and still my house is a mess.
i told my hubby "I NEED A BREAK!" he told me i was not running the house efficently enough. so now he is on my list too. so here i sit, venting to a computer screen because it cannot talk back. and i seriously think if i hear the whiny word, "mother" again i am gonna scream and never stop. i mean i know it is bad when i wanna go around the house givin' them all the finger and yelling at them to "F"OFF! whew! that is not good. so i am left with no break, and a house that i am not running properly. i wonder if i burn it to the ground i will be able to just start over.

You're probably tired of all my responses, but I just LAUGH, HARD, everytime you post! I honestly don't have an answer for your dilemma. I have 1 kid I'm nagging all day long, and I get tired of it. I think you just need a bigger house so you don't have to worry about kids messing things up in your living areas. I miss my big house for that very reason! And, please have one of the kids or even dh video tape if you decide to tell them all to F-off...or better yet, I'll be there in a few weeks, I can hold the camera while you do it! hehe!
