(Yep, we will take the kids to the early intervention assessment. Kids come first and instinct is something to listen to! )
This flu has been a god send really. I got to stay home and A (nanny) looked after kids. I got to sleep - really sleep and had the space to think and sort of regroup. I was spinning around trying to work full out, be a mum full out and still get to the gym, to the choir etc AND try to please everyone. What is that? That need to try and please? The desire to get everyone to be happy? I even noticed this when I took the kids to the doctor. I didn't want to upset the doctor.
Grow a pair lady!
Not only do I lack balls I also lack 'reaction time'. When asked to do something that takes me aback, I agree. Then I stew!
What to do? Maybe I should train myself to say "let me think this over for a moment" or "interesting idea, give me a moment to think it through". Any other helpful phrases out there??
Maybe that way I could avoid paying my nanny to babysit while I go on a 10K run (ha ha ha right, run, yeah) and somehow also end up agreeing to pay her son's entrance fee and take him with me? I'm paying her so I can babysit her son! Clever.
