I’m taking a quick time-out from cleaning to rant. Yesterday, a friend and I were talking about how many other cultures have maids. Even in developing nations where there is a lot of poverty, it is unheard of to live without a maid and/or nanny. Why, then, in our blessed nation do we expect ourselves to do it all? I mean, we work full-time, keep the house clean, make sure there is food for eating, fulfill any extra-curricular obligations we or our kids have, etc. etc. etc. AND we are expected to do it all without yelling or getting upset! Why do we do this to ourselves? Well, I have tons of laundry waiting for me and the kids are hungry and I’ve pissed my husband off by yelling at the kids. Got to go.

Well, I think you’ve slightly exaggerated the situation. I wasn’t pissed off, I was irritated. You were pissed off!!
