You'll be everywhere I go.


Time management is something I will never master. Since Caleb came along and shook up my whole world I've been trying to rethink my priorities. Time felt limitless because there was always a "later" to fall back on. I never understood how much time I truly had until I had none. I think about these things while trying to brush my teeth while holding a kicky-punchy babe. This boy ages me faster than my gray hairs can keep up.

The things that are most important now are as follows:


Sleep. I still struggle with this. It's been a lifelong struggle, never getting enough of it. I no longer have the choice to sleep in or take a relaxing lounging day in bed. Not with a very active, breastfed baby that needs to bounce and climb and be watched. And he doesn't sleep by himself oh no, that would be too easy! I think I get just enough sleep to drive safely.


Socializing. The most social it gets is going to work. I have mixed feelings about only taking four months off work. If we weren't so far from the city I might've stayed home longer. But I was going crazy. Talking to myself, not knowing what time it was, crying for crazy. I needed to be around others and work is what I've got. And (sometimes) we see friends once a week for Pathfinder which ends with me wrestling Caleb to sleep upstairs alone while everyone has fun downstairs.


Hobbies. Any time I see someone I knowing showing off their latest adult colouring book my eye twitches. Ain't nobody got time for those around here. Next.

Food. Having a meal with both of my hands and enjoying it for longer than two minutes is a blessed treat. Hilariously enough I eat less AND have gained weight.


Romance. See Hobbies. Okay, that's not entirely true. Brian and I have an easy relationship where we know when to cover the other. Our love notes are reassuring text messages saying things like "you are a great mum" and "Thanks for cooking dinner." We make the time for each other but our red roses and steamy declarations come in the form of tea brought up in bed and a chance to go shower. There is nothing sexier than having a nice got shower. Alone.


Speaking of romance I got Brian a gift in the form of Underwear. I reached out to Sheath Underwear and they kindly sent me a sample. I meant to give it to Brian to replace his torn up ones but it was too small for him so they are mine now.

Super comfortable style with man elastic band that won't punch your love handles. Free shipping on Canada right now which is not a small thing. These are perfect to order if you are like me and have no time to shop for underwear.

Thanks for the sample, Sheath! They were super patient with me which is another sexy thing that makes me happy. You are lovely.

This post was written entirely on my phone and by the time from start to finish another day is done.
