I don't want to be responsible anymore.
I work hard for my clients, work hard for my family, do homework with my kids everynight, feed them relatively nutritious meals, keep the house well organized, take my kids to their activities, try to pay attention to my husband, take care of my parents, volunteer, put the required amount in my retirement and live within my means. I used to work out but I've slacked off because that because a chore too.
I don't want to do it anymore.

Quit your job and have your husband quit his job. Then you can have a super awesome life of luxury on welfare. Think of how many crab legs you can buy with those food stamps!  |

I have thought of that, but I'd have to sell my house and move to public housing. You shouldn't stack poor people who drink and take drugs. it's a bad idea. |

Swamp - Try lowering your standards a bit. The house won't fall down if there are a few dust bunnies under the bed, the kids eat some McD's now and then, stop volunteering, and cut back on some other things that are stressing you out. You might be able to do everything but you might not want to. Something has to give.

I feel like I spend all my non-work time picking up after other people (or animals) at home. Or just doing some sort of household busywork or project. And cooking, and exercising, etc. I'm f'ing exhausted and I only have part-time kids! I don't know how anyone does it. I'm old, cranky and tired of taking care of people! I think I should work on my drinking until it becomes and actual, full-fledged "problem" so that I can get a stay in rehab. At this point that sounds awesome. As long as one of you brings me wine. |

I don't have kids, but when I feel that way I run away from home and spend the night in a spa/resort a couple of hours away from where I live. I leave on a Saturday afternoon with a bottle of wine and a good book packed up and come back Sunday after lunch. It is only one day, but it feels much longer in a good way.

Now that sounds like a plan! Sign me up for rehab too!!  |

Can you leave work early today, go home and have a few glasses of wine? Seems like a good use of "sick" leave. |

I have to pick up DH from work, take him to the garage where he was getting his truck fixed, pick up the kids at daycare, take DD to dance lessons, and sign DD up for figure skating. DH is in charge of dinner tonight. Whick means it will be Pizza Hut  but I didn't have to get it ready. |

What do you do just because you want to? right now? nothing. I went to a motley crue concert in september with beerwench and miss tequila. does that count? and once in a while i take a bath. and i surf the net at home after the kids go to bed. I used to play golf on thursdays, but even that was becoming a chore. and then I sprained my hand, so I had to shelf golf for the rest of the summer. |

Suck it up sister. You blew it not being born to ridiculously wealthy parents or marrying a ridiculously wealthy man. Responsibility is your destiny, responsible is your middle name and boring is your lifestyle!  |
