So www.bmbblog.co.uk have a blog prompt - If I could have ONE whole day to myself, I would…
I thought this would be easy to answer, wow a whole day to myself to do… what? I can't even remember the last time I had a whole day to myself and whether I enjoyed it or not!
lets break it down..
not work, uuurm…
As I'm a working mummy, I actually love my days off because I get to see my boys. I feel like I miss so much of their lives while I sit at a desk doing things for people who are doing things for people who are doing things for themselves, that when friday comes I want to be with them, a day to myself means another day missing them.
My perfect day would have to start with snuggles and tickles with my favourite lil men, maybe (yet) another read of "A Guffero Mummy!" while I give Noodledoodle his morning bottle and thus have milky snuggles. It'd be going out to the swings, drinking pretend tea and learning how to stack blocks. It'd be clapping along with nursery rhymes and cheering a first step and above all it'd be loving hearing Bean say the words, "bank you mummy" or "uff you mummy" and maybe the first time Noodledoodle says "mama"
But just for me? Could I really have a day just for me?
Maybe I could? With my lottery winnings (equally as fanciful), I would love to have a lie in and a haircut, and maybe my nails done and have an impromptu pint with my best mate in my very favourite pub, whose doorstep I have not darkened since August 2009. Maybe a nice meal out, and a bit of shopping. Some time with my other half on an actual date and maybe more.
It'd be fab, and I'd enjoy it but there would be something missing..as crazy as it sounds, I'd miss the snuggles, the arguments, the time outs and most of all, the words of Bean as he goes to sleep assuring me he's "da comfiest boy in a whole wide ever"
