    Mega stressed Mom

    This always happens when you lack sleep, metamorphosize into an evil bitch. *scowls*

    After a late movie night, we woke up late this morning and found that the Hubs had left his precious daughter at home. Wasn’t he supposed to have taken her to school? Fuck, no lie in for me. After bouncing out of bed with red eyes, gosh, it really felt like a hangover, I made Tee’s milk and asked her to drink it whilst I brushed my teeth. Twenty minutes later, she had still not finished her milk. I went ballistic. It was already 9am!!! School, for your information, started at 8.30am.

    The screaming began which made her jump out of her skin and I immediately told her that she would have no TV for a whole week. I was sweating by then, and you know, when I am sweating and in a rush, I get even MORE mad!!!

    Brushing her teeth was loud, dressing her was loud. I think Tee freaked out a little and got a dose of what a live band in a nightclub sounded like. Pretty funky. I made her a chocolate cheese sandwich for breakfast because there wasn’t time for anything more fancy and she complained that she wasn’t in the mood for cheese. What!!! More screaming as I tore out the cheese. Screamings to wear her shoes, screamings to walk faster, screamings to shut up and get into the car……oh, so much screaming. Why is it that a toddler cannot just listen and do as you say when you talk in normal decibals? Aaaaaaaarrrrggghhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Then, in the car, she spilt water. More screaming. Because I was late for an appointment, I was driving at 200kmph and flew over a bump with my low car and BANG! Even MORE screaming!!!

    I was screaming for a good half hour. Everytime Tee opened her mouth, I would scream. Finally, I threatened her that if she so much as gave me any shit when she went into school, I would turn into a big black monster.

    The poor girl was terrified. She stuffed her face with her whole sandwich till she couldn’t talk for fear that she was eating too slow. She pattered quickly and quietly with her little feet into school for fear that Medusa’s head would really appear out of Mama’s crown.

    One hour later, I regretted my actions and felt like a big lump of shit.

    After school, I apologised to my girl and she told me she still loved me. *sigh*

    What do you do???
