Being at home is frustrating: I clean but the only thing seen is the remaining filth, I tidy up but the only thing seen is the remaining mess, I cook but the only thing mentioned is what’s missing or what went wrong, I organise but the only thing seen is the leftover chaotic part, I do groceries but the only thing that will be mentioned is what I forgot. Being a mom at home is a reverse bullshit job, it’s doing something meaningful treated like it has no value. The whole logistic of the house and its inhabitants revolves around me, like a small enterprise and still, the feedback is that I’m doing nothing.
