I feel so Bad

[satrunstar]

:-XI feel so bad, last night I stayed up until about one/two o clock in the morning cleaning the kitchen. In the morning I had to run to work and grab my cell phone charger because my phone died. I was gone maybe 15 minutes because I also stopped by the store for milk. When I returned it looked as if the kitchen hadn't been touched in months. This happens every time I clean the house and leave for any length of time.

So I was trying to do laundry,dishes, and dinner. Every where I turned I was tripping over toys. My husband was at the computer and I asked her several times to pick her toys up. Eventually I lost my temper and told her to pick up her "...(foul language).." toys or I was throughing them away. I feel so bad. I Don't usually swear like that, but I was so angry and I also know that that is no excuse either. I appologised, but I don't feel any better. I still feel horibble. What can I do to make it right so I don't feel so bad? :-Xb

Just give her a hug and Im sure she will understand.

Maybe you should try if possible to get someone to help you with your chores like do out a list for each person and agree on what jobs to do if either person has time between work etc?
You shouldn't be left to do laundry, dishes and dinner while your husband is at the computer (no offense there, Its just my opinion)

I hope this helps but I will pray for you anyway.

God bless,
Lorna

Ask God for your forgiveness. Let Him know you are very sorry for your language and actions that took place. Make it that you are to keep your temper in check and that you are not to act in that manner again.

God will forgive, let Him know you're sorry and that it won't happen again.

You and your family are in my prayers.

God Bless

OHhhhh believe me, I feel your frustration. As parents and spouses, our biggest struggles are to keep our cool in times of great stress and frustration. And ALL of us slip now again. I have, just as you have. I'd be worried if you didn't feel bad, but the fact that you do, only shows that you are human, we are subject to the frailty's of human nature. This is what separates from God, we are fallible. God accepts that, and forgives us for those shortcommings, if we are wise enought to acknowledge it, and ask for forgiveness. But remember the burden is not yours alone, your fault is not in becomming frustrated with the situation, it is in how you handled it. You have the right to feel frustration, next time, try to keep you cool until you can find a constructive way to deal with the situation.

Being a mother is the hardest job, that is why God gave it to the toughest of the sexes *wink*

Thank You all for your kind words and advise of wisdom. I did ask for forgiveness many times. Unfortunatly the chorse around the house are all mine to bear. I have come to accept that. Sometimes I just feel like I'm doing Everything. The house and the raising of our daughter by my self. Anyway, enough said about that. I have had a wonderful week this week. After all a child would do almost anything for candy !.... I'm joking. I dont' believe in bribing children to get them to do what you ask ;D

May God Bless you and your family.

You are in my prayers.
