its 1am... im exhausted and raymond is asleep on the couch cause he claims to be tired. i wish i had a day like his. its not that he doesn't work hard cause he does - after all he 'brings home the bacon' so to speak. but you know, he gets his morning break and then his lunch break and then maybe even an afternoon break too, who knows! this has been my day so far (it was an easy one).
it all started about 9am when i arose from bed (and what a nice wee snooze it was may i add), about 10 minutes after that esme woke up. i went into the bedroom, played with her till about 9.30 (give or take 5 minutes), came into the living room, fed her - that took me up till about 10.30. shortly after that i lay her on her play mat so i could get some house work done - she had other ideas. i managed to get the bed made and then had to come into the living room to get her and keep her entertained. i played with her, read her a story book and i fed her again about 11.45, just in time for lunch as she wont eat her lunch if she is too hungry, she fed will about 12.00 then happily played till about 12.20 at which point i put her lunch on so it was ready and cooled by 12.30. 12.30 came and went and she then sat in her high chair eating a rusk till 1.00. dum dum dum - the dreaded nap time :( i spent just under an hour getting her to nap. she napped till about 2.40 during which time i cleaned the bathroom and finished the kitchen and living room. so she got up and i fed her yet again. about 3.10 i caught up on some ironing while esme watched some playhouse disney - mickey mouse and your wee club house, I LOVE YOU!! thank you for letting me get ironing done :) this took me till about 4.00 so i then put on esme's dinner and let it cool till about 4.10. fed her and let her play about till about 5.00 then she was screaming so i gave her another boob just to calm her down and it worked like a charm. raymond got in from work about 5.40 with some beautiful flowers and chocolates. i put tea on, before i knew it it was esme's bath time, bathed her, fed her and put her down to bed. had a shower - can i relax? dont think so. during the day i had been doing washing - i think i may have put on about 5 loads so this all had to be hung up and dried, dinner dishes done and then about 11pm i started on esme's bedroom - raymond helped pack away her things. we came through to the living room back of 12 to grab a yoghurt and then about 12.30 he declared he was tired and going to sleep. i unloaded the washing machine about 12.50 and put on another load. i now want my bed (and a day like raymonds!!)
im kerplunked.
