I almost ran away when I was a teen. then I thought where would I go? Everyone I know would tell my family whee I was. And i didn't fancy sleeping on the street. So i chickened out on running away, and put up with what I was going through.   ]]> Fri, 21 Sep 2007 19:59:43 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10858&PID=217049&title=tired-a-pity-post#217049 <![CDATA[Tired...(a pity post) : Oh big I agree with what everyone...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10858&PID=216901&title=tired-a-pity-post#216901 Author: floss

Debs Ive been feeling like that a lot since starting work. Hmmm Would you be in with a run away from home plan...... I remember always planning on running away when I was about 8yr. Taking my cabbage patch, radio, pillow, blankets and of course my bestie and some lollies. We just used to write list after list of our plan lol. Of course would never have done it tho lol

I'll take the boys for a day so you can have a break. And I promise we will stay at home and I won't take them anywhere I am at risk of losing them coz I have a bit of a reputation for that!
Big hugs from down here in Palmy, will take you out for coffee one night next week without the small hanger-on creatures.

Sometimes I feel completely knackered just chasing around after the husband, so I just think you all with children do the most amazing jobs being tugged in multiple directions.

I hope you have a really good sleep tonight GandT and you're feeling better tomorrow. If not, leave the kids with DH and go out for a coffee and a wander on your lonesome on Saturday. Even if you make it 2 steps away from the car somewhere, collapse and have a cup of tea, take some time out for yourself.

Thinking of you!! ]]> Thu, 20 Sep 2007 18:48:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10858&PID=216418&title=tired-a-pity-post#216418 <![CDATA[Tired...(a pity post) : no wonder your tried you need...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10858&PID=216368&title=tired-a-pity-post#216368 Author: james

My old neighbour used to schedule herself a "mummy day" once a month, basically she'd get up in the morning and leave the house and not come home til five. I reckon you'd deserve something similar! The no money thing sucks, I can sympathise but I'd say you deserve a time out.

Hope it gets better!]]> Thu, 20 Sep 2007 11:02:19 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10858&PID=216255&title=tired-a-pity-post#216255 <![CDATA[Tired...(a pity post) : Sounds like its all getting on...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10858&PID=216224&title=tired-a-pity-post#216224 Author: caraMel

All just makes you want to run away, huh? I'm exhausted and so frickin' tired of the constant grind of house work and nappies and teething grumpiness and tired husband and...well, you obviously know what I mean. How about we go halves in a lotto ticket, and when we win (as we so deserve to do) we hire nannies, cleaners, cooks and a massuese. Sound like a plan?

Alternatively, add a wee something something to your cup of tea

Hope today treats you better hon. ]]> Thu, 20 Sep 2007 10:23:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10858&PID=216219&title=tired-a-pity-post#216219 <![CDATA[Tired...(a pity post) : (the barricading!) ]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10858&PID=216218&title=tired-a-pity-post#216218 Author: buzimumto3boys

Tired of the constant whingeing, tired of no one listening to me, tired from having to get up in the night, tired of kids crying, tired of hearing "no singing mummy" or "ow" for no reason other than attention. Tired of having to do everything, tired of stuff being thrown all over the house, tired of the arguments, tired of nappies and sh*t, tired of doing the washing. Tired of being called grumpy, tired of having no money, tired of the kids wanting and the tantrums when they cant have, tired of having no privacy, tired of my stuff being ruined, tired of saying the same things over and over and over...
Just so tired. ]]> Thu, 20 Sep 2007 10:06:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10858&PID=216201&title=tired-a-pity-post#216201
