Laura Ingalls Wilder Redux

This time last week, I was at the hospital managing my contractions with grace and ease, getting ready to birth that beautiful Whoopsie.

This time this week, I've just finished stocking fire wood, hanging out laundry to dry, weeding & cleaning the terrace, gone treasure hunting for dog poop, had a quick tidy of the kitchen and a breast feeding session with the baby.

Ah yes, life as I know it and love it has returned, full force.

I just hope I have enough time between feedings to make up a couple of jars of strawberry jam, eat lunch, organize my closets, knit an blanket and maybe even have a shower.

Well, worst comes to worst, I can always bag the shower, right?

I still can't believe how quickly you made that pile clean of laundry disappear into closets!
Is this my Karen, walking through whose bedroom was always like walking in a mine field

For days!! Showers are way over rated unless you want to look good.
