But today I am congratulating myself on a major scale. I have achieved so much in such a short space of time. I have:
- Arisen at 7am
- Dressed myself
- Dressed Babysaurus Rex
- Fed Baby
- Fed myself
- Changed three nappies
- Swept the floor
- Done some post-natal Pilates
- Washed my hair
- Baked a mixed berry upside down cake
- Done the washing up
- Put Babysaurus down for two successful naps
- Finished knitting a hat
- 
and all before 12noon! I might even put my make-up on! I am so proud of myself for all my morning’s accomplishments that I almost update Facebook with a glowing status. I feel like a domestic goddess. However I log on to see a friend’s post that reads: “I now realise that I am middle aged. It's not that I have a house/kid, it's that practically everyone I know does or is going to soon. Going through my news feed, at least half have updates about children or profile pics featuring their offspring. Hence the change of profile pic. Mid-life crisis here I come!!”
I back away from the keyboard, have a word with myself, and try to remember the days when hair washing was an every day occurrence and not a luxury treat…
