Little bear was watching some Dr Who with OH so I decided to start on some much needed ironing. Little bear had a meltdown - I had to be paying attention to HIM. To be fair, now little bear is less likely to tug on the iron cord, so I can get on with it, but he does do all he can to interrupt. Today I just wanted him at a safe distance while I worked out what was what.
I am a rubbish housewife, and it is hard working out what I should be doing and where I can put things with an assertive young man demanding that he does stuff and that I pay attention to HIM.
I managed to get some stuff done, but I will wait until he goes up to bed for round two.
What I need to do is work out what is going on in the house, then get going with him, so that he learns how to housekeep and I can do things without him throwing a hissy fit.
This post has been almost impossible as I stole a few minutes to post and little bear has been insistent that I pay attention to HIM. I don't want him to feel neglected, but he does need to understand that sometimes I can't drop everything, so I have continued. Okay, continued after breaks for hugs. I feel very battered.

Sorry Sybs you are going to hate me for saying this but this is what happens when you have an only child.You are their only source of attention and entertainment and its incredibly hard to live with at this age.As for the housework issue I have four tinies at home at the moment and my house constantly resembles a bomb site but theres no point in being depressed about it I just try to keep one room reasonable and the bathrooms clean and tidy and try not to get stressed when the little darlings are swinging from the light fittings lol.By the way just joking about the light fittings in case anyone from SS is reading this!
