Speaker 1 (00:05):
Apod Shake production goalk back to another episode of Am
I A Bad Mama Podcast? It's funny how in tune
(00:30):
we were with each other today because I haven't seen
you until you walked in to do the podcast recording.
But we are wearing the exact same colors.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
I know. And then I had a laugh and because
I was like sitting here and we're like prepping, and
then I like look down and then You've got zips
on the side of your pants and I've got zips
at the front of my pants, and then we're matching colors.
And then all you said to me was I just
wanted to be comfy this morning. I did too.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Yeah, so I dressed for my day if I have
to dress up, which I don't really like doing, to
be honest anymore.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
You know, I'm like that with he going out, Like
I've had a few different events and even the idea
of now, like knowing I've got to go to an
event tonight, I have to wear heels. I dread it
all day. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
I love whoever decided and probably for the last few
years now, the sneakers go everything everything.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Yeah, we've got a race day coming up soon and
I've tried. I still haven't got an outfit, but I
have literally tried to find something black and white with
a touch of red, and I thought, if I can
nail this so it's a bit of viby, I might
be able to pull up snoos, Am I a bad
(01:48):
mum for having a warped sense of humor?
Speaker 1 (01:52):
What was that lot for?
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Okay, so our girls, well, yours are way past. So
you can truly see your sense of humor coming out
your children, right, because they're sixteen, they've got their own.
But there's a little bit of you and a little
bit of JA. Like it's a mixture kind of thing.
The girls being ten and twelve where a little bit
earlier in that stage where you're just sort of seeing
it blossom. Elsie's sarcasm at the moment is out of
(02:21):
this world, out of control. But I know exactly where
it comes from because I'm messed up like that. I'm
sarcastic all the time, well not all the time. I'd
save three quarters. You know, it's a give or take,
Like I look and go, I'm gonna warp sense of humor.
I actually find it funny that my child is reversed
sarcasm and towards me like I find it funny because
(02:41):
I go, oh, this is good. That was a good one. Now,
and I think I sent this to you. The other day,
I popped out to the shop I had left Elsie.
I think I can do that. I don't know whether
she's too young anyway. I was in close proximity, but
I only gone to Ida, so it's literally around the corner.
And it was in the middle of the day and
I said to her, and I gave clear instructions, I'm
(03:03):
going to get this for your lunch, and at that time,
I want you to put your bag in your room,
just like three little things that had been annoying me
for the morning. And I'll go and do that for you,
because she wanted something in particular for lunch. You do
x y Z yep, yep done. You get home. She
hasn't done it. No, I'm at IgA in that short
(03:24):
space of five minutes, and she is then on her
iPad that I hate her doing. Are you still at
the shops? This is her messaging me whilst at Ida,
whilst trying to just get a couple of things, while
she's got three jobs to do. Are you still at
the shops. Question Mark, by the way, I just want
to know how much time I have to do my
(03:44):
jobs and then like spraise me with all of these
like what are they called gifts of like people just
cleaning like poor me, like vibe of her having to
clean the floor. No, I didn't ask you to clean
the floor. I just asked you for it. But genuinely,
I was standing in IgA and I'm replying going, I'm
(04:05):
five minutes, I'm nearly home, Get off your iPad. But
I'm actually standing in the middle of ij looking at
this conversation I'm now having with my ten year old
on her iPad with all these gifts, and I was
laughing my head off. Didn't say that to her, but
that is and.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
It's essentially text you with a photo like she's a
slave child, She's a slave, She's Cinderella.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
She she is feeling like she is a slave. And
all I've given her is like three minimal tasks. I
wouldn't even call it a job.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Do you think that we just haven't given our kids
enough to do over the years in terms of jobs,
because mine know the exact same. I'll say, you just
need to feed your animal, Yeah, they're arguing over it.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Yeah. Right.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
The other day we were going somewhere and I said,
just so you know, there's a bunch of stuff in
the fridge for lunch. You've got this option, this option,
this option. Come home later on, I go, what do
you have lunch? Actually I didn't even need to ask
for it, because all over the kitchen I was like,
first of all, you had two minute noodles standard, which
is the laziest of lazy.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Secondly, why is the packet on top of the side
where the bin is underneath? Why is that stuff? You've
literally made them simplest of lunches. It's literally packet open
in a pan, hot water. Packet goes in the bin,
(05:33):
pan goes in the dishwasher.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Yeah, why is it still out? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Because they argue over who said they were going to
do it and she was supposed to do it, and
I just fucking.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Just do it, shut up and do it. I went
out of my way this morning to sort of see
that situation unfold a little bit. This is how warped
I am. Right. So the whole situation is Sam has
gone to the bench done something. This is where my
children learn it from because it's not me. I can
tell you. I can assure you it's not me. Sam's
(06:04):
going to bench, made himself something a little snacky and
then like proceeds to put away half of this shit
he dragged out, but then leaves the butter right in
the center of the bench. So if you were to
talk about clear as day, it's clear as fucking day.
I can see it. It's the only thing that's left
on the bench. And I was like, I think he's
doing it to irk me. And then I was like, no, Rachel,
(06:27):
this is nope, that's not for you to pick up
and put away. Leave it there and don't say anything.
And then I walk past ten minutes later, it's still
sitting there. And then I go past and it's still
I was like starting to like twitch at this stage,
and you know what, It's still on the bench. Yeah,
because out of principle, I couldn't put it away.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
No, but it does our heads in Well, why did
you leave it out?
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Yeah? If my eyes are drawn to it, how can
you not see it? Yeah, your arm's in your legs
and your eyes got it out of the fridge, so
how can you not see it? Now? I don't get
it no.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Then could text him going, could you please put the
butter away? And he'll text you with a picture of
him being like Cinderella. He's a slave in this house's
slave slave.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
I genuinely find those small things. They irk me and
I know, like we talk about it all the time.
How do you control like, you know, stop trying to
control everything? They gotta learn. How do you teach them
if they're a forty year old man.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
They don't care.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
No, it's like another child.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
They don't care if the butter is left out, just
the same as they don't care about wrapping bacon and
putting it back in the fridge. They'll put it back in.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Oh no, no, no, no, no, let it go. No.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Yes, that's what happens because none of them cares.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
You know who's like that in our family? Nanade, Nanady
loves that. Oh pop that back in the fridge. No wrap?
What why you're trying to kill yourself? What you want salmonella?
I'll slip you around the face with a chicken fill
it like, I actually, what is wrong with you? Just
put some fucking cling raup on it. She irks me
about that. She puts some clean up. It takes two seconds.
(08:17):
In the time that you've turned around and put it
in the fridge, you could have put clean raup on it.
She just I don't know what your problem is, Rachel,
And you're like, what the fuck? How is it me?
I don't want Salmonelle
