Dear Diary,
I’m 38 years and 11 months old. My husband asked what I wanted for my birthday. I told him a Thule roofbox. Who am I?!
For anyone who knows nothing of roof boxes, for the past month I’ve got from zero knowledge to full on anorak.
I’ve spent two hours in Halfords (yes two hours(!)) talking to the roof box specialist. Finding out about bars, roof boxes, side opening, dual opening, u clamps, claw clamps and obviously size!
In other news the post partum hair loss is under way and I’m hoovering non stop as it’s everywhere. How do people with dogs cope with all the hair?!
Baby G is 3 months old, she’s a little dream. Smiling, giggling and this week full on belly laughs. Her older sister has been the sweetest lately too. We went pumpkin picking at the weekend and somehow avoided the rain.
The husband is working a crazy amount of hours again. If I had ever kept this diary up to date, this would have been a trend over the last 19 years. His biggest vice is that he is a workaholic. Thankfully our weekends are usually ours but during the week we don’t really see him. It’s crazy saying that as 4/5 days he works at home.
I’m going to be honest and say I’m slightly envious that he gets to spend all day on calls and in meetings, talking to other adults and using his brain for proper stuff. My brain is used for being the CEO of my home which keeps it fully occupied. Sorting EVERYTHING and organising everything in our lives. But I so so wish I was back working at times. (I decided to change my mindset a bit as everytime I say stay at home mum I just felt.. a bit invisible and a bit meaningless so I rebranded my role as CEO of my home 😌).
