I am on 8 years of this stay-at-home stuff and some days I do feel like I’ve lost myself. I’m glad you found what is right for you!!!

I’ve read through a lot of your blog, and really enjoyed it. Expat blogs hold a special appeal for me, as someone who has lived half of the last ten years abroad. One of those years was in Australia, actually. A little place called Townsville? The Cleveland of Australia? (Read: the type of place that makes every Aussie say “What? Why!?” whenever I tell them I lived there.) Never made it to Darwin. I nearly melted in Townsville, Darwin to me represented the Place Where Heat is a Living Entity, and I had no desire to stick to the pavement.

Anyway, I know you’re terribly busy now, but don’t give up on the blog! I’m anxious to hear how it goes as a working mom, and how it goes when you finally travel to exotic lands with a baby (I am keen, my fiance…not so much). I need to live vicariously until I get to live actually again!

nice. I am still a stay at home mum – my boy is 10 months – I liked to read that you are feeling great being back at work. I am doing the freelancing thing and I will see how I go… I am with you about this first year of mamahood being such a haze of anxiety and the rest of it….. I have started blogging and freelancing and exercising and life suddenly seems like it has never been better.
I think the more we do for ourselves the better mamettes we can be…

I have ..a few.. regrets… about working full time when my kids were little.

But as long as you’re still providing QUALITY.., that is what is most important.

Hoping to hear more about your work as well as the little princess!

It so wonderful to read your comments about how much you are enjoying being back at work. I am just stating to get my own business off the ground. Working from home, but with my son starting prep next year..I have the time ad space to do it. I can feel my head space getting clearer and happier too.

ahaha – WT once again leaves a comment that makes me snicker.

Sounds like you are very fulfilled at the moment – good on you!

Hmmm, my posts may not be as funny as my comments (as you so graciously pointed out), but at least they’re not virtually extinct!

Hurrumph..

So wise for being a first timer LMM, sounds like you are in a great place at the moment which is fantastic. Wish I could say the same, Third time around and it has hit me this time. Probably doesn’t help being here and feeling alone and isolated but never the less it is a horrible state of mind that I really want to get out of but it is too easy to get bogged down than to get up and do something. I’m envious that you get to see Le S through new eyes now and have a much more attentive and excited approach to being her Mum, I read your post and I know that I want to appreciate every little moment with 1,2 &3 more, and get to long for their smile, their attention and their love, unfortunately though i feel that it so hard at the moment for any of those things to seem important, and at present I feel that all I do is feed them, drive them, referee them, discipline them, occupy them, and then wish them off to bed. But really as you said, it is all about me and the way I feel in myself, and I too need to get that right before anything else can work properly, Not sure what my solution is though, but I am working on it. Proud of you though LMM, Le S has a great start to life with you putting yourself first, which in turn makes everything better for her xxx

I got here through Girls Gone Child… Read your post about having gone back to work and finally feeling alive and whole again. Right now I’m smack in the middle of my own very lethargic post-natal year, and wondering if I’ll ever have energy again, feel like myself again, be happy again. I love my baby, so much it’s exhausting, but where am I? So good to read from someone who has been through that forest, and come out the other side!
