The kids had a lovely night at the Frozen musical but konked out in the car on the way home.
Meanwhile it’s 10.45pm and I should be joining them in bed but I’m preparing R’s work lunch bentos and also our picnic lunch tomorrow. Many times I look at our messy house and my many undone house chores and I really think I’m such a terrible mum and wife. But at times like this I think I’m not that bad after all. I should stop beating myself up all the time.
I didn’t take any time off this school holidays due to starting the new job. Luckily I think the kids still managed to have fun. They always have a blast with their cousins, but the grandparents must be very tired.
Luckily my sister and mum brought the girls to the zoo during a weekday. I think their favourite part of the day was probably snacks from the vending machine!
Three weeks in, I am still enjoying the job even though slightly overwhelmed at the new things I need to learn. There’s also this feeling of wanting to prove myself, but I bring this on myself. It’s a bittersweet feeling, I love learning about new things but I also don’t like feeling like I don’t know anything. I think I will feel more settled maybe six months in. I miss my old sector and the familiarity of it, for now, I think once I’ve learned enough, I might return one day.
Weekends are still the best! We have a jam packed activity filled weekend ahead, I’m going to make the most of it 🙂
