Dad made me switch up the plan routine tonight for the diswasher. I been out all dam day part of day (10am-1:30pm) was with him running from one store to another and an hour was getting a friend to her hair place in my town and also waiting for a "snack" at a coffee place (as well as eatting said snack) and then getting my friend on a bus back to her place and then the last two parts of my day was first hanging out at the library till 4pm and then go and order and wait and get my supper for tonight. I didn't get home until like after 5pm. When I got home..when I was hurrying to get into our swimming pool the plan for the diswasher was I would only need to EMPTY the dishwasher and Mom said she would RELOAD it when she got home from choir pratice-granted it could be as late as 9pm when she gets home.


But after I finished supper and I finished reloading the dishwasher Dad demanded the sink be cleared so he could make more applescause and when I said i didn't want to do it (I wasn't suppose to be doing it tonight)-he called me lazy. And said he would do it but knowing him he wouldn't put anything in the right spot so I was forced to do the job instead.

When I was done refilling the dishwasher (the job I wasn't suppose to be doing in the dam first place)-I said Scartically "the dishwasher's filled you majesty" and Dad gave me this crap about "with how little you do around here you don't seem to understand much about teamwork" um from my POV the person who doesn't seem to understand much about teamwork is Dad and the other player on the team (Mom) said she would do the dishwasher when she got home but no because of Dad insisting on doing the applescause job tonight I was forced to do the job I wasn't suppose to be doing tonight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@Disneywoman Sorry to hear about the change in plans with the chores. Sounds like you had a busy day, and it must have been frustrating to have to do a task you weren't originally supposed to do. Hopefully, things will go smoother next time. Take care 💜

@Mya000

Yeah it was busy day and the last thing I wanted to do was refill the dam dishwasher ater I had completely empty it. But Mom took Dad's side when she got home from the choir pratice. Which is unfair.. mom got to sit on her behind all day when i was racing around various places all day since 10am that day and had 0 time on my computer until after supper. I got to have a half-hour of sit down time reading at the library before getting my lunch but other then that I was on my feet all day and really wanted to get to my computer because if I miss one day of (brain-training game site) I loose my entire progress

@Disneywoman I understand how frustrating that must have been. It sounds like you had a really busy day and just wanted some time for yourself. It can be tough when it feels like your efforts aren't recognized. If you ever need to talk or just want someone to listen, I'm here for you.

@Mya000 what I didn't like is my Dad's comment about "not understanding about how teamwork works" and yet Dad is the one who didn't understand about how teamwork works-I mean did he really need to be making applescause at 7:30-8pm when he made it the night before as late as 9-10pm? So he could have waited until Mom got home at 9pm to refill the dishwasher.

@Disneywoman I totally get where you're coming from. It can be frustrating when someone criticizes teamwork but doesn't follow through themselves. Waiting for your mom to get home would have been a more considerate approach. Teamwork can be tricky sometimes, but hopefully, things smooth out soon!

@Mya000 considering the "teamwork" we did earlier in the day of working together to get my friend to her hair place in (our town) without me having to take the bus over and have to guide her to the bus stop on the other side of the street, etc.
