Mums The Word


I’ve started dreaming about my own private studio to escape to. A nice kettle and teapot. A yoga mat. ( I don’t know how to do yoga, but I have ambitious feelings…..) An aquarium in the corner, for company. And a large wine cooler, just in case I get really lonely. I think these dreams are telling me something. I think they are telling me that my family would like some time away from me. Perhaps they need more of their own space, without mum around to confuse things.

I think I daydream way too much. It is a refined procrastination strategy. I have a long list of "have to's". Then I sit and plan, and I escape into "lala" land, and lo and behold, nothing gets done. But one day......

I love Mother's Day. I can escape into "lala" land, and not feel bad.

Cheers to all the other great mom's out there I know. Mostly, my own. How lucky we were!
