Lay My Hiney Down



Weekdays and weekends sort of blur together around here. Often times I look forward to Monday after a busy weekend that is often much more work and more demanding than any other day of the week. Often I say "thank God it's Monday".

Is it like that in your household?

This weekend, however, I am looking forward to. This week has been so busy. I am aching for a rest, to lay my head and my to do list down. 

Thank God it's Friday.

I've been working my little hiney off this week; newspaper and magazine interviews, sorting out my website to offer advertising options (I've been pre planning this for months, but there was still a lot of work to do behind the scenes)(I'll tell you more about it later). I have barely lifted my eyes from my laptop screen. 

Some fresh air will be nice I think, maybe a picnic, perhaps the sun will make an appearance to dry some sheets so we can have fresh linen? 

Fresh linen does wonders for the soul.

Following our home birth my midwife and helpers put fresh sheets on our bed. It was so snuggly and cosy. Perfect for that first night and day in bed :)

I do hope you have a good weekend, and if you're like me and they end up being much busier than they are worth, lets just take a moment to breath in, be strong, and release it all. Lets enjoy what we have because life is fleeting, isn't it? One minute I have a brand new baby and fresh cuddly sheets, next minute she's 10 months old.

Do you have any plans for this weekend? Leave a comment and let me know!

  1. I have plans to do nothing much at all, which usually means there will be lots happening.

    Rest well and I am nearly done collating my slow cooker recipes - I haven't forgotten :D

  5. First of all, I love the photo, and her little hand to rest her head upon! Cute :)

    I'm a 'Thankyou its Friday', bring on the Saturday sleep in kinda girl.

    Though this Friday, my hubby is back for 5 days( waiting for him at the moment ), so we are going to soak him up as much as we can.... aswell as that we finally get a fence to separate our house from the sheep this weekend! Yippee! No more sheep poo to dodge :)

    Getting outside for a breather and a picnic sounds like a great way to spend the weekend after such a hectic week... enjoy :)
