Before I would waddle in paralysis (and drown in wine) vs doing something, which always makes me feel better. Lol on the housework. I feel the same way. A few years back my partner and I broke down and got a house cleaner once a week. We both like a clean house, but neither of us live to clean after long days at work. And with two dogs, the place gets messy. It has been a relationship saver
"Waddle in paralysis and drown in wine"
I think that sums up my last 6-12 months, lol!
Day 6 here and feeling great.
Slept like a log last night, 10pm till 7am straight, can't remember the last time that happened!
Looking forward to doing some junk modelling with my 7 year old today, he's a minecraft fan and has started making his own animations from plastic figures (WAY above his age) so I'm going to make him a film set out of cardboard boxes, egg boxes, paint etc... I've always been a very hands on Mum but it'll be so nice to do it without a hangover!
Happy Saturday everyone!
Btw, planning ahead I'm going to drink spicy V8 tomato juice tonight as a treat and have a few pecan nuts, I still want my treats & rewards at the end of the day so need to ensure I have a variety of good stuff in the house : )))
