When my husband leaves for work I put the dog in the basement. It's finished, warm, she has water - I just cannot deal with the huge dog AND two toddlers. If he knew the dog spent the day downstairs he'd be pissed. Oh well, he isn't home taking care of small children so he has no idea how annoying it is to keep the dog from the kids and vice versa.
What do you do that you should feel guilty about but dont? |

My husband is in charge of getting the two kids to daycare in the morning and I pick them up. Sometimes it is a real hassle to get them both organized and out the door and I know this. Nevertheless, I often kiss them all and run out the door earlier than I really need to, in order to avoid it all. I leave my husband to figure it all out to ensure that I get a seat on the Metro.
And I don't feel guilty. |

| I just gave my kids a teaspoon of benadryl each to help them get on with naps. I'm sick and have been up since 6am and am in need of some rest. |

| Now that it is getting dark earlier, I put my dd to bed 30 min. early and since she can't tell time, doesn't have a clue. No..I don't feel guilty. I enjoy my extra 30 minutes! |

I haven't spoken to my husband since yesterday morning. We fought. I am not sorry. I have no plans to speak to him ever again unless it's about the baby or bills.

Toys, drawings, paperwork and odd socks are scattered across our small apartment ever since I gave birth to DC2 7 months ago.
This used to make me very anxious, but now I don't care. My brain can only handle so much. |

Thanks. I never thought I'd be at this point, but I guess sometimes things just happen. |

| There is food on the floor under the table where 3yo dd eats. I get down there every other day or so when it bothers me and scrub it up - old cheerios stuck to the floor with milk, mostly. I'm going to have to be better about it now that the baby can crawl and has developed an interest. DH calls them "floorios." |

| I let my toddler eat peanut butter pretzels for breakfast today because she asked 50 times. |

| I don't get down on the floor and play with my boys as often as I should. They have toys; they have each other. I know I will play with them more as they get older and their toys interest me more. |

| In the evenings, I just sit and read, or browse the internet, or watch TV, while DH cleans up after dinner, gets the kids bathed and put to bed. I'm off the clock. And I don't feel guilty. |

| I guess I feel a little guilty about how often my in-laws take my kids (one weekday afternoon/evening and one full weekend day each week). But ooohhh... the pleasure of coming home from work to sit in my comfy chair BY MYSELF in a silent house, eating in the living room without worrying about setting a good example, moving freely about the house with no one clinging to my leg or crying because he wants to come to the bathroom with me, checking email without constant demands to look at "aminal pitchers"... it's worth the guilt. |
