Groundhog day

Today I:

Ignored a baby’s cry at four in the morning. I am now beginning to understand the different cries and this one was an “anyone out there?” cry as opposed to a “Waaaaaah, gimme food!” cry. I was right to be dismissive as he promptly fell asleep and didn’t wake again until nine o’clock: a miracle

Collected dog from kennels

Dropped daughter and daughter’s cousin to pony camp

Drove to the supermarket

Forgot purse so drove home again

Drove back to the supermarket

Shopped for the week

Spent way too much time wondering whether it’s cheaper to buy loose onions or onions in a bag. (Still not sure and don't really like onions anyway)

Ate a pack of salami in car outside supermarket

Collected boyfriend’s suit from dry cleaners

Made several enlightening comments about the inclement weather to various strangers

Unpacked shopping (the MOST BORING job in the world)

Collected daughter and cousin from pony camp

Fed babies loads of times but managed to always be busy when there was pooping going on so the Au Pair had to step in there

Made burgers for tea and was told that they were much nicer than the ones you get in that very popular fast food chain

Went to the circus (not joking, honest)

Ate about a hundred gummy bears and realised that if you hold a stick of candyfloss for too long without eating it, it melts all over your lap

Put on a wash

Kissed various children goodnight

And wondered if I have finally reached Supermumdom.

Realised very quickly that my inner yearning to really be drinking tequila shots whilst smoking lots of cigarettes and sleeping every day ‘til noon will exclude me from that club, forever.

Thank God
