Calling all working ~<MaMMa's>~

I too do not get the 'can't cook etc., '.....obviously his mum pampered to his every whim!

How about buying a slow cooker and putting it on the night before.....the one I've got (Tefal) I put on for 9hrs then it goes to 'keep warm'.....its great for nights when I don't get in til 6.30.

I too like a pristine home....but over the years I've learnt that somethings don't have to be done everyday...ie., polishing, ironing.

Try prioritising the things that need to be done and those that can wait.

Talk to your OH and see if he could maybe do a little more to help out....or maybe HIS MUM could cook for all of you once or twice a week???

Try playing with your financial figures on entitledto.com , see how much (if anything ) you'd be worse off by working part time.

You can never get the precious time with your babies back, its good that you are showing them that working is the right thing to do though.

Sorry didn't see your post above lol.

Hope you have a easier week,...guess life isn't easy for anyone at the moment and trying to juggle work/wife/mother is a difficult one....I find it difficult...and theres only 2 of us at home now.....so goodness knows how you feel
