Do you know what I most long for right now? A day to myself to do absolutely nothing.
What amuses me most about the concept of ‘me time’ (and there is a lot that amuses me about ‘me time’) is that there is an expectation that you will set aside time in your day to do something for yourself. When all a hardworking mum really wants is the chance to do nothing. Absofuckinothing. I want to lie down and go away in my head for a while. I’ll be so good at doing nothing that people walking past will be tempted to check my pulse.
Or maybe that’s just me?
In any case, this is not the weekend for that. This is possibly not the life for that. No sooner am I over Max’s Lord of the Flies party, I am full-steam-ahead planning the Badoo’s 6th birthday palooza. Unfortunately there is nothing even remotely ‘nothing’ about ‘full-steam-ahead’. But I confess, I’m happy anyway.
