Stressed to the MAXX...

I dont know guys....and gals....
Im beginning to feel over-loaded.

This is how my day goes

I wake up at 7:30, get the one kid off to school, I get ready for school, and then I go to school,have my lunch break where I either do homework, or go to work at the pet store and the go back to school and then I am there until 11:45 when I take 5 minutes to get the OTHER kid to school, then I go back to school until 3:45, then I get off of school, pick up milk or whatever we need, go home, get the kids on their homework and help them, whilst doing my homework, feed, clean, water, and exercise my crow, go back inside to give the kids' their baths, finish my homework, go for my bath, do some laundry and maybe clean, go to bed.

I am also getting PICKED ON at College. This one girl and I were joking around a bit, just before our teacher got into the classroom, and this one girl wrote him a note on a peice of looseleaf paper she ripped out of her binder, telling him something along the lines that I was being inaproppriate.
This chick wont even TALK to me....since the first day...not ONE facking word.

And my psycho sister is starting on me for "not helping out around the house"....um, Im sorry, but I've been busy all day RAISING YOUR KIDS.

Im starting to teeter out. I cant do all of it...and yet I feel expected to. I did an "experiment" where I did not bathe the girls, nor did I put them to bed...what happened, you ask? They got hand, foot and mouth disease, and were up until 2 AM every night. If I dont do this , my sister wont.

Like, come on....Im juggling homework, and my crow, and all of my other pets and obligations.

I have 2 hamsters that also need constant attention...and so does my epileptic dog.

.......my head is spinning....I dont even have time for meditation.

You venting again gorgeous?

Feel better?

Dear me, it's time to tell your father to get his other daughter to raise her own kids.

Keep smiling and TAKE YOUR MEDICATION...

There is always time to take medication i don't care what you say...

It will calm you down as well.

I also think it's time those girls, learn't to help around the house themselves hey? Then their Mother may give you a break...

Why don't you start teaching them a bit more there and also how to take their own baths without you helping them?

Forgot how old they are but they're not that young are they? Like 8 0r 10 they can start to do somethings more for themselves, or else they will be like their Mother hey...

Take care.

lol.. Hey acerousme...

You know I could edit right?

However, some kind member pointed out that you said "MEDITATION" not "MEDICATION" haha

I'm leaving what I wrote, you need a laugh.

CW

Um, hope I don't need glasses? Or, I am dyslexic or something...

Hey sweet, is there a possibility that you could move out? Stay with another family member? I know that you love and care for your sisters children, but theyre not your responsibility... youre still a 'kid' yourself, albeit a very mature one. You shouldnt have these stresses placed upon you at your age.

It sucks doesnt it? I imagine that you thought that you were being caring and helpful when you first started looking after your sisters kids (which you were).... and now, your sister just assumes that you'll do everything. She takes you for granted.

You need a holiday!

**acerousme** · 09-12-2008 09:40 AM

LOL....CW, I did need a laugh. I was like....medication....not a bad idea, lol.

I wish I could move out. I have nowhere to go. all of my family lives...well, everywhere....

The girls are 10, and 6....the 10 year old can do her own thing...on her own....but the 6 year old still has some trouble with a few things, and the 10 year old...well, she doesnt listen...grrr

**Phoebee** · 09-12-2008 09:47 AM

There are people who don't have time for medication either! If DH "Forgets" its not a pretty sight... ;-) Come to think of it when I forget my HRT I'm not fun either...

College sounds like high school. Your an adult I would just walk off and flick her ear! Or tell her to grow up and talk TO you not ABOUT you.

**SorridLives** · 09-12-2008 11:52 AM

I would say take a break from some of the things you can sometimes. If you are living with your sister and she is helping you, you may have to help her some, but maybe you can put some limits on it. Set up what you can and will do and then there will be ground rules.

**acerousme** · 09-12-2008 01:56 PM

oooo...I wanted to do MORE than flick the cow...lol.
the only thing I can take a "break" from is my animals...
my sister does NOTHING around the house....she sits on the computer, and plays cards, or she smokes pot while I watch the kids.
and when my mom tries to talk to her my sister says "I didnt come home/ Im not here for a lecture"

uhm....FACK YOU!

Damd, lol, so the 10 year old is aleady turning out like her Mother? ahhh, pity cause you could get her to bath her sister whilst her mother is high on drugs, your Mother is ignoring the obvious, and Your Father too......

No, no, don't ignore your babies, they are all your little creatures that love you un-conditionally, don't argue back....

Mmmm... Make the 10 year old feel a bit special, "I'm so proud of you" type of things, then slowly as she feels the attentions, say " Yeah do me a favor can you turn the bath water on for me" and leave it at that, and then keep saying that, after 2 weeks " hey can you bath your sister I just have to do this". All the time though praising her along the way, all of a sudden she will be doing stuff with out realising it..

Never know sweet.

Okay, I misunderstood the situation. You are living at home with your Mom and sister is there with her kids? Hmm. Well, I would just say, "NO", more. Is that possible?
