Whinge of Week

-

People think, as I work shifts, I have ‘me-time’ during the day. But I’m up at 7am getting my kid ready for school, I do housework all day, then prepare dinner before I’m off to work again! Marriage is like Snow White and the Seven Dwarves in reverse – first you marry your prince, then you end up cleaning up after little people for the next 20 years. Us mothers only get one holiday a year and even then, it’s not really a day off. If only homes were selfcleani­ng like some ovens.
