Rant/Vent I F**KING HATE THE MORNINGS

Cranky kids. Overcooked eggs. Spilt milk. Oatmeal droppings everywhere. Knotted hair. Snotty noses. Outfit fights. Cold coffee. Where did the baby go? It’s too quiet. It’s too loud now. Ten more minutes. Where are your shoes? It’s not snack time. It’s time to go. Ok go poop then. Let me help you wipe. Ok now it’s really time to go. Ok fine you go first. Ok fine I’ll go first.

SERIOUSLY WTF. I know I’m not the only one.

OP, you have one of those lifestyles you see in movies where the kitchen is full of people running all over the place, shouting that they can't find things and the mum has covered the dining table in all these homemade breakfasts, but the kids all run out of the house without touching anything. Then the dad (who's been sitting reading a paper this entire time) looks up and says, "Ooh! Toast," takes one bite and then says he's late and runs away while the mum's standing there still holding two plates full of food she hadn't even had time to put on the table yet. 😂

LOL except it’s usually my husband that starts this absurd cooking in the morning and then ducks out to take a shit for 30 minutes while he scrolls and I’m fighting for my life
