There's that time of the day when I've had it with being supermum. The time when I feel like I'm going to implode any second now.
On Mondays and Fridays during the school year (aka creche days), this is about seven o'clock, conveniently coinciding with the time I hand both kids over to their daddy for bedtime. (Yes, he does that. Yes, I know I'm lucky. It's their daily one-on-one time.)
Other school days, it's about five o'clock. I often retreat to my beloved internet. I sometimes hide on the toilet for five minutes' breathing space, after dropping my youngest in her playpen.
Today: three o'clock. I think I need a better plan for the holidays.

ReplyDeleteLuckily there's beer. ;-)
ReplyDeleteProsecco...looks like soda water in a glass!
ReplyDeleteI know how you feel, and I only have ONE, lol. I am utterly exhausted after putting Oscar to bed. Realizing I need to find a way to make more time for myself.
ReplyDelete@Christy - Good one! However, I have trained Jack to bring me a beer and a bottle opener. Now I want a return on that investment.
ReplyDelete@Sandy - Welcome! I realised that a while back, so I have my two creche days. I could not recommend them more highly. Also, Thursday: date night!
Mine usually have a nap together in the afternoon, that's my 'me' time. When I don't get it oh dear!!
ReplyDelete@SandyCalico - My youngest is asleep just now, the oldest watching a movie. Heaven. Yesterday, I only got half an hour at nap time, which made me read that post. I know what you mean!
