Treated myself to new hair! It can't hide the eye bags, grey hairs or crinkles but it's a bit of a boost to have healthier locks. Thanks @jhulianas_mobilesalon for being a fab mobile hairdresser, making a hair cut and a bit of pamper time with two small kiddos possible. 💇 • • • • • #acupofmotherhood #parenthood #mamahood #ig_motherhood #motherhoodsimplified #inspiremothers #ohheymama #motherhoodrising #honestmotherhood #igmotherhood #motherhoodalive #motherhoodthroughinstagram # motherhoodunplugged # mummyblogger #amomentinmotherhood #rockingmotherhood #thisparentlife #momsohard #momswithcameras #mumswithcameras #pbloggers #mammarazzi_square #pbloggeruk #dailyparenting #cameramama #ohmamamoment #muumblog #ig_bbcck (at Lancaster, Lancashire) https://www.instagram.com/p/COGiHhYnpUz/?igshid=p5i6e7hdj7tq

I really look forward to Wednesday nights during the lockdown, as I have been playing online bingo with some other fellow bloggers. ⁠ ⁠ Laura from @tiredmummyoftwo and founder of @blogonuk is the number caller and she as had us all in fits of giggles every week with her bowl of balls. ⁠ ⁠ All the prizes are given out by @34sp and they have been very generous! ⁠ ⁠ We have 4 playing at our house. I have won on 2 lines, my husband on 1 line and Aaron (9) won last week with a full house. So we just have Caitlin (10) that needs to win something.⁠ ⁠ Aaron as already spent his winnings on a new tent, so him and his sister can camp out in the back garden. ⁠ ⁠ #bloggers #ukblogger #ukbloggers #blogon #ukparentbloggers #pblogger #pbloggers #lblogger #lbloggers #parentbloggers #mumbloggers #bingo #blogonbingo #fullhouse #lockdown #lockdownlife #lockdownfun #stayhome #coronadiaries #isolationgames #isolationbingo #zoombingo #winner #pink #fullhouse (at Matlock, Derbyshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CA8aRADp2Qt/?igshid=19zrkthw79i3m

From a diary of a working mum...

From a diary of a working mum...

After another restless night, the alarm buzzed at 05:45, but I snooze it until 06:20, as it’s nearly Friday and getting up is a real struggle. Theia decides to wake up with me, which sucks, as I cannot spend an hour in pure silence, but there you are.

My incredibly dramatic and whiney child decides to tantrum through her morning, throwing every option of breakfast straight at me, whilst I make coffee to keep my eyes half open. Don’t get me started on the dog and cat, tangled between my legs, demanding feeding. It wasn’t until 7:00, that I actually got a move on, otherwise I would have fallen asleep on the sofa.

I make Theia’s lunch and pack her nursery bag. Dress her, brush hair, using my phone as an item of bribery, if not, she would go to nursery looking homeless. Encourage to brush teeth. Dress myself, make up, hair. We are out of the door just after 08:00 (first time this week!), I even squeeze in a quick natter with my mother.

Theia is throwing yet another tantrum as at the tender age of nearly 2, she has suddenly lost the use of her legs to get to nursery, so I carry her. If my back could gesticulate, it would show me a prominent middle finger for doing that daily. Theia successfully placed in nursery, so I run home, quick sip of my cold coffee and I’m on my way to work to start at 9.

Work - demanding, eventful, tiring, but in a sick and twisted way, fun as always. By midday, I want to bash my head against the computer and pass out, in hope for a wink of sleep. Three coffee’s later, it’s 17:00, at last! I’m going home. Quick trip to the shop as I ran out of the magical potion of sanity - coffee - and straight to pick up Theia.

Theia was good at nursery, what a relief. No bumps on her head as a result of silly behaviour or time out in the managers office. I bribe her once again, this time with chocolate, to let me carry her home, otherwise she bolts to the park and that’s a shit storm of its own kind, because whatever the weather, swings are life. Get home, another coffee. Coffee doesn’t even scratch the surface anymore; at this point of the day, I strongly consider illegal substances to give me a boost.

I rush downstairs. Start cleaning the kitchen, garden, laundry on, I still haven’t put the dry washing away, but surely it can wait till Christmas? Bathroom cleaned, toilet scrubbed. Hoovered, due to the dog destroying a shoe box, one of my shoes from the charity shop (which cost £3) and various leaflets. Air freshening the living hell out of the house, because it smells of wet dog.

Dinner is nearly ready. I finally take my shoes off and sit down... the clock reads 21:50. I finally sit down, to have my dinner...

So please, don’t question me, when I’m nearly falling asleep at my desk. When I don’t laugh at every single joke or want to engage in social interactions. When I’m tearful for no reason, due to the state I’m in, as I can literally feel the hormones buzzing within me. When I suddenly lose the will to live. When I snap, bite and frown. I’m not asking for admiration, pity or even a gold star. Just understanding. Being a working mum is rough and today is a proof of it. I’m just trying to survive yet another day. Over and out.

Edit:

22:30 - Little footsteps, stomp stomp stomp... somebody is out of bed.

Who even knew that children came with so many possessions that mainly live on the stairs. You know, the "if it's on the stairs it needs to be put away upstairs" pile. Fighting a losing battle with the kiddy clutter at the mo - the brighter the plastic the more it breeds. Anyone else feel the same? . #quotesaboutlife #quotestagram #quotelife #lifelesson #pbloggers #ukmumsquad #instamum #ukblogger #mblogger #30plusblogger #declutter #clutter #ihavemoretoysthanyourkids https://www.instagram.com/p/BuKTcDmF9MO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1nsup85q31mmh

Rainy days. Stay inside? We thought about that. Then we decided to Crich Tramway Village. Olivia paid for our tram journey and we has fun building in a sea of #LEGO as they have a special event this week. Not to mention a great soft play area and today George did his first rock painting. If you've never been, I would highly recommend this place. We had a great day in the rain. When the sun is shining there is even more to offer. Plus, your ticket is valid for 12 months from the date of purchase so you can keep going back for free! #trams #familyfun #rockpainting #rain #pbloggers #parenting #kidsofinstagram #derbyshire #dayout #creative #puddles (at Crich Tramway Village)

Snotty, yet still smiling. Tim pointed out to me yesterday, that we have failed Theia as parents yesterday, and as harsh as it sounds, he’s right. I’ve been so wrapped up with work. I’m a carer, I care for vunerable people. But what about my own vunerable, little human being? I took the day off work on Thursday to look after her and it was a first for me. I never just take a day off, years of hard work taught me that. She needed her mummy though, so we spent the day chilling out. On Friday, she went to nursery and then came home for 20 minutes, where we both had absolutely no time to give her any attention, running around like idiots, preparing for work. Dropped her off at Frankies for the evening. My head was a mess. I knew, that she shouldn’t have to be looked after by anyone else but her parents when she’s poorly, no matter how incredible Frankie & Mitch are with her. She needed us. She saw us for less than an hour. She is only 10 months old. I felt ashamed, guilty and sad. I spoke to work, asked for today off as well. They have been incredibly understanding and supportive, which meant a great deal to me. We decided not to go longer than half a day where she doesn’t see one of us. I know, that in years to come, I will regret not holding her a little bit longer, a little bit tighter. I will regret not giving her the time of day to play with her or let her climb all over me, because I have cleaning to do. Work will still be there in 10 years, the pile of cleaning will return tomorrow, regardless of how clean the house was the day before. But Theia will not be a baby anymore. She may not want me to hold her, kiss her chubby cheeks or roll around the floor. She will only be a baby for this short period of time and become a distant memory, once she starts independently exploring the world. I’m sad, but I’ll learn. I’ll learn to prioritise the most important people and things in life. I’m only a kiddo myself, forever seeking guidance and reassurance. One day, I will grow into a woman my daughter will be proud of and will willingly look up to. Let me learn, watch me grow. #mumblogger #pbloggers #joyfulmamas #dailyparenting #instamum #matkapolka #10monthsold
