Having one of those feeling p!$$ed off days, kids are bickering, so OH is shouting at them, I'm shouting at all of them, all I seem to be doing is picking up after the three of them as they just drop/ leave things lying around, sick of falling over shoes in the living room when they are supposed to be taken off and left in the porch, fed up of washing up plates/ cups etc because nobody else can wash up (dd does have a good excuse for this) glasses can't be used more that once by anyone other me it seems, DD and DS have pile of dirty washing on their bedroom floor that I'm refusing to bring downstairs as they are capable of doing it,yet DS is shouting at me that his football socks are not clean, DH has left a pile of dirty clothes in the bathroom along with wet towels dumped on the floor, I have a drill and case on my kitchen worktop, I have no idea why because nothing needs fixing in there!!! I am quite simply at the point of explosion I can feel it festering and is slowing building up and I know at some point today I am going to go off like a volcano. OK SORRY RANT OVER
.
On to money, springboard have paid me £25 into paypal and I also have £11.75 on its way from panel base. £8 also redemmed from mysurvey so looks as though I won't be short this month as long as nothing else crops up, which I'm sure it will:undecided0 -
I could have written that pwps!! You have my complete sympathy. The only difference in my house is that DS2 is too little to leave dirty clothes around, however he has emptied his costume box all over his bedroom floor and walked away
.
One day, when my kids have their own places, I am going to go to their houses and make a mess and walk away!!!Debts @ LBM £23,729.31. Debts @ 08/04/2016 £0 :j

Awww pwps, feel you pain there. Every now and again I have a little outburst just to remind everyone to pick up after themselves. The big thing here at the moment is like the advert - empty toilet rolls - what is it with men/kids and their lack of ability to take the empty toilet roll off the holder??!!
Hope your day brightens up.
plmbl - that sounds like a good idea when the kids have their own places, or I like the advert when the woman throws a tantrum and lies on the floor in the suppermarket......imagine their faces.:rotfl:

pwps that sounds like my house! He has a garage for all his tools yet they seem to end up in the house! I take the youngest 2 children to bed (I have 3), come down and then have to start tidying, washing up, fetching washing in etc! I have a blowout about it every so often when I am proper grumpy and p***ed off. Never seems to have a lasting effect though :mad:Sealed Pot Challenge #817 £50 banked0

Morning, thanks for all your supportive words, sometimes i feel like its only my house that is like a mad house, went on strike yesterday afternoon and just vegged, it worked DH and DS made tea
.
Yesterday was also a nsd so I'm now up to 19/21.
Tomorrow we are off to the zoo, will be taking a picnic to keep costs down.
So cold here i've lit the stove, hopefully it will warm the house a bit.
Had a chat with DH yesterday as we are getting to the point of need ing oil ordering, hopefully we will do that the end of this month and then not need to pay for it until Oct, I've also said I don't want the CH putting on until the end Of Oct and just heat the house with the wood burner.0 -
I also could have written that rant!:rotfl: I went on strike during the week though when my back gave way and guess what the house has stayed the same! Aside from doing the dishwasher and the washing machine and cooking i've done SFA! I refuse to do it now until the kids go back on Tuesday. By then I think the whole house will need gutting though
