Let’s try this again, shall we? I was in the middle of a long and detailed post about my new favorite show, Poldark, last night when BAM! the internet up and quit and I was too tired to try again. So I went to bed instead of doing my work…one of the best things about working for myself. One of the hardest is when I do that and have to start over again in the morning 🙂 Alas, here I am and feeling significantly better I must say!
It’s so crazy to me to see and know how a mom’s body works, especially in those first few months after birth. I could survive on minimal sleep and seem fully functional – no big deal. Now, 16 months later, I went one night with three hours of sleep and was dead to the world the rest of the day. Mothering, wife-ing, friend-ing, working, all of the -ings went down the crapper. If only we could harness that postpartum ability – we could rule the world! And be rich! But mostly I wouldn’t suck at life after a hard night 🙂
I hope you guys have a great day, a great weekend, and enjoy these fun links!
