A local woman has reached the end of her tether this week after her husband, Alex, thoughtfully decided to ramp up her responsibilities…as if she doesn’t have enough already.
Tasmin Sharpe [33], is alleged to have been struggling to juggle working full time and raising two kids under the age of five, which often saw her needing to take the occasional ‘mental health’ walk around the block or sneaking into the toilet for a cheeky vape.
A very tired Tasmin speaks to The Advocate.
“At the end of the day, no matter how wonderful my husband is, the responsibilities often fall onto me”, admits Tasmin, “I essentially have two jobs.”
“One’s full time, and the other is 24/7.”
Citing that she gathered it would get a little bit easier once both kids were in school, Tasmin states that she’d been counting down the months until her oldest turned five, so she could have a break.
But unfortunately, a new mouth to feed and toilet train has been added to the Sharpe household as Alex has come home with a very adorable Staffy puppy, which the kids have already christened ‘Bluey.’
“I love dogs, I really, really do”, says Tasmin, “but fuck me, I do not need this extra responsibility.”
“Puppies are just toddlers with teeth.”
“I wanted to wait until they got older and we had more space, but Alex says he wanted to get a dog to ‘grow up with them.”
“And now the kids are attached and it keeps pissing and shitting everywhere, and every time they cry, he starts barking.”
“I’m STRESSED.”
More to come.
