What A Week

After my post on Wednesday about a Day To Forget it has turned into a week to forget.

I felt much better on Thursday so I got the boys ready and went for a walk for fresh air which helped me no end after being stuck in the house for five day's straight and when we got back Ollie and Joel fell asleep......RESULT. Some me time finally so I had lunch and read a mag in peace but it wasn't long until Joel woke up, he's been so unsettled recently.

Hubby came home Thursday afternoon which was a sigh of relief. Missed not having him around.

After dinner I started to feel very sick again aggghhh! I wish this bug would disappear, seems to re-appear if I eat but I have to eat something as I'm breast feeding Joel, maybe that's why he's unsettled he's not getting enough milk. This carried on into Friday feeling rough on and off throughout the day so it was a big struggle to occupy two small children especially Ollie who was back back to his normal self wanting constant attention. All I wanted to do all day was to sleep. Still feeling rough through to evening hubby made a bit of dinner but I couldn't manage much and Ollie fell asleep in his chair so he was in bed by 7.30pm and I was by 9pm.
Hoping for lots asleep....I wish, Joel woke several times during the night and the only way to send him back to sleep was to feed him. Its so exhausting.......I only want sleep so I can recover.

Saturday now and feeling ok although after having breakfast I felt that bubbly tummy again and the stress head just will not go away. So I escaped to pamper myself with a bath, paint nails and wash hair - I just NEEDED some time to myself after being with the two boys 24/7.

Do any other mums out there need alone time?

What A World

I think I'm naive when it comes to the working world now I feel I've had a year out and everything has changed it's a lot harsher, employers don't really care anymore, a lot more is expected of you. I think the attitude now is that your lucky to have a job so deal with it.

But then again people looking for jobs are just as bad, my work are employing for my maternity cover and 2 out of 3 of the interviewees didn't turn up the other day even after asking for a more convenient time for themselves to attend.
What is going on people they just don't seem to care about others anymore its awful. And I'm bringing a second child into the world it worries me as if it's like this now what will it be like when my children are adults. It's a scary thought.

In my grandparents or even parents era jobs were for life if you wanted and the world seemed a safer, nicer place but now I'm shocked by employers, employees and just everyday..........what is going on.
