Before Monday Ends
I love Mondays. I'm always excited about a new week. I always anticipate a great week ahead. I wish that is always true but 'NO'. If Monday is on the menu, can I have Sunday, please?
But lol does it matter what day it is? For a mother like me, every day is all the same. I can't be relaxing whenever and wherever I want to. Oh, I can. But I can't. I think I complain enough.
Being a parent is all about being tired, telling people how tired you are and listening to other parents tell you how tired they are.
Funny but is true. It is true but it's fun though. I'm happy and grateful for my life and trying to be the best of myself whenever I can. Though I must admit I can't be always nice.
Today, Tia and Jigz aren't listening to me and from a calm voice, I end up shouting. And here's Tia come to me and said:
"Mommy, deep breathe." (with illustration)
"Are you mad at us, Mommy?"
Me: Yes. Because you and Jigz not listening to me.
Tia: You should be nice all the time. But it's okay I still love you!
And she hugs and gives me kisses. Tia is just a sweetheart and a good teacher to Mommy. Jigz says sorry and we all do the homework. Yes, I'm back on homework time with Tia. And there are no tired hands or crying eyes tonight.
I got everything sorted by 8 pm only the snack box to do but I have to go to the shop as I run out of bread. I put them to bed and my husband ask if we can have our walk tonight and since we are going to the shop I told him we can also have our walk.
Saturday and Sunday we didn't walk at night because I'm not just able to as I'm flat out, I'm too tired this weekend doing house chores. And so weekdays we try to get back on track.
After getting what I need at the shop we started walking at 10 past 9. We park in front of the Newtownards Town Hall. I'm excited to see this lit up in December.
Then we just walk around the town for at least an hour. The street is not busy but there are some dog walkers about.
I took a shot at this church because I just love the architectural design of most of the churches here in the UK. But my dream is to see the one in Barcelona.
We are having a good walk while talking about different stuff. We are nearly finished when I saw this Japanese restaurant and all I can think is the food. Ramen!!!
I told myself I'm working on Sunday and I have to take the bus and I have an hour of waiting time so I will treat myself. Not tonight. I just burn some calories. It's a crime to fill it up again.
And I will end this with a great "Note" on the street wall.
Yes, my dear,
"YOU'RE LOOKING GOOD TODAY!"
Have a lovely Tuesday. Have a good night.
Aww, Tia is really a sweetheart, I can't help but laugh when she said "mummy, deep breath". It will be hard to remain mad at her after that
