don't know if anyone is on. i have 3 dcs under 5, wohpt, have a great nanny, but i don't have my sh*t together. lately, i've missed a couple appts, lose my cell phone almost daily, late in paying bills. i am so stretched and also sad. dh works long hours but when he comes home he helps with dcs a lot, on weekends he does most of the cooking, grocery shopping. anyway, he is fed up with my disorganization, saying i put it on him and that i need to manage my life better. he's right, but i'm pissed too. he is rigid and belittling. i feel like i have to be a robot-super wife with a smile on my face all the time. any advice?

I don't know what to say. Our roles are reversed in my family except you still probably do more than my DH. It is frustrating to deal with someone who is disorganized when you are super stressed out. Maybe try making lists, put things in the same place each time so you'll know where to find it. Keep a calendar. Organized people use these tools for a reason.... [ Reply | More

Is something else going on? Are you just normally scattered/overwhelmed or could it be adult ADHD or something? [ Reply | More

you sound like a spoiled brat who is acting like you don't want anyone to rely on you and that you don't want to be the grownup. [ Reply | More

ITA. With 3 dcs under 5 (me too) and a part time job, I wanted to sympathize. But by the end of the post, I hated her. [ Reply | More

If I had 3 dc under 5 and also wohm pt, I would be scattered as well! I have far less on my plate and feel the way that you do. It sounds like you need help getting organized. I would start with lists etc. Don't let your dh get you down, it sounds like you are both frustrated and overwhelmed. Can you get some more help? [ Reply | More
