LISTS

I would have to say I spend around 3 hours a week writing lists, preparing for tasks that without a 3 year old I could do with my eyes closed, but now i have to warn myself days in advance for simple things like shopping, a sleepover at nanna's or just things that need doing around the house that I will inevitably forget to do.

And i would say 70%  of these lists become lost, drawn on, painted with yogurt or just frankly disappear along with half of all socks and for some reason today's favorite toy that mini-me frankly could not possibly sleep with out.

I have begun making lists on my phone in the attempt that they don't get lost, but when you are sat on a bus, in a waiting room or cafe and the 3 year old is becoming bored its extremely easy to go here, play on the cbeebies app and please be quiet so the rest of the public stop staring at you shouting 'mum i farted!!!' and by the time its come to use said list, brilliant, phone has died.

At what point does your brain begin to function again and you don't need said lists! three and half year down the line and i still pop to the shop for milk and come back £20 down with half the sweet aisle, a bottle of wine and no milk! 

At what age do children realise shouting they have farted in public is not acceptable? 

Its very strange coming back to blogging after over a year off, but I think I need my outlet of whining back, Hopefully I shall go back to amusing you all with more horrendous stories of how myself and mini-me are embarrassing me on a daily basis....

much love x
