Balancing act

Last year and this year are though... being in lockdown is hard. With same people all the time and I ve made one of them! But we had a most amazing maternity/paternity leave... 

And I was lucky that hubby was still on furlough when baby G was born. He quickly took over all the big boy care so I could concentrate on healing and feeding the little monster. 

 

And now we are back into the world. He is back to work, I started doing two short shift in the restaurant too. Fitting around days off and breastfeeding... 

But I am yet to use my alarm. To start my shift at 7am I need to get up, shower, pump/feed get ready have a coffee, at 5.30am but it’s always one of the boys it up before that... not ideal 

Same on the school day... so we all been sat and ready to do half an hour before we actually need to leave the house. And then I m trying to sort the life things out. I have time (fool I don’t) and energy (same again) to do so while Big boy is in school and hubby’s at work... 

I am managing little bits but I also want to read, listen to pods, junk shop, sew things.... and not be tired. Hahah! Fool! 

So I am hoping to fall into routine and the body and mind will adjust. But it’s early days still... it will be fine right! 

Yes it will be ok. I knew the sleep is now a luxury
