...Tired Today...

I've been this stay-at-home parent for over a year now, taking care of my partner and our little space. It's tough sometimes, feeling like I'm shouldering the weight alone when they're just... being themselves. We have fun and it's not all bad, but today was hard. I felt so frustrated when they wouldn't listen or follow through with simple things we agreed on... and then I snapped. I ended up spanking them... really harshly... because I couldn't handle the chaos anymore. It left bruises... and me feeling guilty as hell. I wish there were an easier way to manage everything without losing my temper like that, but today... it happened.
