I’m sorry if you feel as though I am neglecting you because of my children. You have to understand I can’t be there for everyone all the time and at this particular moment I choose my children. That doesn’t mean I don’t think our friendship isn’t important.
I’m just really tired of you. You are so completely suffocating that I can’t even *think* about you without going into an anxiety attack. You’re selfish, ungrateful and merciless. I try my hardest to make a meaningful connection with you and once, just ONCE I “neglect” you and every good thing I have done with you and for you is forgotten in an instant and I have to try extra hard to get you to respond to me again.
Friendships are hard work – I understand that. However it’s not supposed to be a one-way street. I can’t just keep on giving and giving and not having my friendship acknowledged. I’m not even asking you to give back to me.
You are high-maintenance and I’m exhausted. I’ve convinced my husband to try to get through to you and while he sometimes manages to charm you, even he is getting sick of your never-ending demands. My children don’t want to have a bar of you and I admit that’s probably because of my attitude towards you lately.
So it’s with a heavy heart that I say:
.
Housework…..you’re dropped!

I’d like to write a similar letter to the Housework who lives in my house!
Salam Tasmiya, that’s so funny and so true! LoLzzzzzzzzzz. You just reminded me, my dishes are calling me…
i find that whenever i try to break things off with housework, things turn nasty. it really is a sick relationship. what can be done??
What can I say except, “good riddance”!
haha, I thought you were going to say blogging.
Salamaat,
you’ve been tagged missy! btw, I LOVE this post. I am inspired to end that sick relationship i have with my housework too!
You have been tagged!!!
Good one!
I thought you were going to say blogging too, my heart jumped when I clicked over here to this new template, I thought something had gone wrong. I miss the old themes but I guess I can’t complain too much because I’m always changing my theme.
me too!
very funny.
Surviving, b. and UmIbrahim – glad you enjoyed it. Make sure you do those dishes UmIbrahim!
LoA – housework is passive aggressive – you just can’t win no matter what you do. GET RID OF HER!
em – I said that a few days ago but now I am really regretting it. My middle name used to be “slightly messy”..now it’s “squalor.”
Irving and Apple – blogging is a friendship too strong and beautiful to ever give up (at least for now – if there is one thing I am, it’s fickle).
Shaz and Koonj – thanks for visiting and glad you enjoyed
What a beautiful web design this one is. I’m in awe!
I want to do the same but my housework will blackmail and torture me with “odours of indeterminate origin” until i give in. Squaloriffic!
