Diary of a Housewife: Chat Log

What are you even doing in the park, you absolute menace?

Yeah, it’s not just me and my baby 😁
I've noticed more and more young dads out in the local parks lately—mostly these pretty young guys 😁

The world has gone completely upside down

Honestly, it’s just great seeing dads actually step up and take care of their kids for once. 😍

As if that’s enough—now all the kids have come down with something. I’ve spent the entire night running a vacuum over their noses, doing nebulizer treatments, monitoring fevers, and basically acting as a full-time nurse.
I'm pretty much exhausted at this point. 🙂

Got three people with you? Did you actually manage to whip up something decent to eat?

I thought about making fish tonight, but I scrapped the idea since the kids are under the weather—they’re being incredibly whiny and high-strung right now. 😳
So, I’m sticking to meatballs and mashed potatoes, with a side of fresh green salad, and maybe some blueberry banana bread for dessert.

As for how many kids I have, I’m keeping that to myself. Some people on this forum love to weaponize parenting to try and insult me—calling me an "incubator," I guess, as if they think calling me constantly pregnant or saying I have a whole pack of children is somehow a clever jab. 🙄

Just tell them you've got seven on your side and don't even give them a second thought ☕ 🤣

But meanwhile, all the kids are sick. I've been up all night dealing with stuffy noses, running nebulizers, checking fevers, and just being a glorified nurse.
I'm exhausted.🙂

And what’s my husband doing besides making breakfast?😳

🤣 🤣

rapidtrucker78 said:What else does he actually do besides collect eggs? 😳

Providing moral support, I suppose... 😁
Should I just put him out of his misery while he sleeps? 😳

Drew Ross2 said:🤣 🤣

He’s offering "moral support" 😁
Should I just end him while he's sleeping? 😳

How is he providing moral support if he's asleep? 😳
No need to kill him; just hit him with a drooling toddler and he might actually wake up. 😳

rapidtrucker78 said:how exactly is he providing any moral support if he’s asleep? 😳
you don't have to kill him—maybe just hit him in the head with a runny-nosed kid, he'd probably notice 😳

and then, he comes over to hug me😁 or gives me some sympathetic pat on the shoulder🤣
it doesn't matter—let him sleep through the night since he works, but once he gets home from work, I'll just dump my bum kids on him and go out for a bike ride😁
provided it doesn't rain🙂
actually, I don't really care if I'm riding in the rain😁

Drew Ross2 said:Honestly, whether he comes over to hug me 😁 or just gives me a supportive pat on the shoulder 🤣
doesn't matter. As long as he sleeps through the night since he works so much, I'm good. Once he gets home from work, I'll dump my kids on my husband and go out for a bike ride. 😁
Just hoping it doesn't rain. 🙂
Actually, who cares? I'll ride in the rain if I have to. 😁

You're working too, 😳
23 hours a day, if you don't count that one hour you spend cycling.
I'm telling you, just guess him. 🙂

Drew Ross2 said:I was originally planning on making fish, but that’s out the window since the kids have caught a cold and they're being total little divas—super cranky and restless right now.😳

So, I’ve pivoted to meatballs and mashed potatoes instead, served with a crisp green salad, and for dessert, I whipped up some blueberry banana bread.

As for how many kids I have, I’m keeping that under wraps. Certain people on this forum love to weaponize parenting to take cheap shots at me; they try to insult me by calling me an "incubator," which is their twisted way of implying I'm constantly pregnant or just running around with a whole pack of children following me.🙄

Don't even sweat it. They're just jealous losers. Nowadays, being criticized for having kids is basically treated like being criticized for not having them.

rapidtrucker78 said:you're doing it too, 😳
if you don't count that hour spent on the bike.
i'm telling you, just wait until she 🙂

A bum hit her with a citation 😁

Walter Baker2 said:Why bother? They're just jealous idiots—it’s basically the same as being childless these days.

How many kids would you actually want? Or do you already have them? 🤔

Managed to squeeze in a thirty-minute power nap while the baby was out—feeling like a whole new person 👋

Drew Ross2 said:The bum got hit by a pie😁

How many kids are you actually looking to have? Or do you already have a full house? 🤔

I’ve got three little monsters running around.

That’s fine, I suppose—but aren't they already quite large?

Hit the butcher, the fish market, and the farmer's market—plus picked up some flowers to plant 👋

Just thought I'd share my little peach 😍
