Slummy Mummy

Master B returned to school today.

I had hot drinks and chat with a friend after the school run.
Definitely the highlight of the day.

It was a wet, windy and miserable day; matching my mood.
My mind could concentrate on nothing and my body just lay on the couch drinking pints of warm Vimto, eating half a packet of dark chocolate digestives and watching TV.

Not done this in years.

It's not a new trend, it's not what I've become, it's just that today I needed to collapse and today I actually could.

By 3pm the Autumn light peeped through a crack in the grey sky and highlighted the room that I'd languished in. It roused me, just enough, and just in time, to collect my precious chidlers.
