Combat the voices

[ailbhe]

I feel particularly useless today, because I am sitting around while Rob tidies.

I hung the nappies and washed and hung the towels. I also washed three special loads of one item each, and a rug. I filled and ran and emptied the dishwasher. I cleaned ALL the children, including the one who had an accident on the rug. I put away clean dry laundry. I made my bed. I made everyone lunch and several people breakfast. I did fractions with Linnea, body parts with Astrid, and something else with Emer, I forget what right now. I tidied up. I helped Rob replace our dining room speakers, and made a meal plan for next week. I did finance stuff online. I fed everyone dinner and got Emer ready for Girls' Brigade when Linnea wasn't well enough to go.

Could be worse.

Writing it out makes a big difference, and having people explicitly not think I'm a useless whinger helps too, so thank you :)

I can hardly imagine anyone further from being a useless whinger.

I too think you are an extremely useful non-whinger. You are great and you do lots and lots of good stuff.

I would consider such a day a marvelous success. Well done and mo you aren't a whinger from the things you say.
