Hello! So I actually cleaned yesterday, so two weeks on the trot...... OK! No I should not be awarded an OBE for doing so, but for someone who does not like cleaning it is a big deal for me.My desk gets into a terrible mess. As I just go into work mode and I know the mess is there, but it has to get so messy for me to in the end, give in and clean my desk.
Please check my two day in a life videos, honestly you will be impressed and it took spilling powdered milkshake to do it, but I yes I admitted defeat and I didn't turn back.
WELL DONE ME! Heres a link to my Youtube channel:: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUDFIqjVKLy7NhtcR6Hy0Tg/
If you think that all Content Creators and writers have their act together, without a crack insight. WRONG! I just did a Get Ready with me type of video and my makeup dropped and went everywhere, whilst filming. I have another bin of rubbish, yet last night I actually also changed my bed sheet. HONESTLY BRING IT ON MARTHA! She is a top woman, but I think she needs a bit more competition sometimes.
Delia Smith for example is someone who never burns a bit of bread, and you'd think she spends all of her day sewing, but no. That lady is a football fan and not afraid to show it. She loves a fried breakfast and sitting with a cup of tea reading the latest football news. She even like Lorraine, God bless her Scottish socks, will have a good old fashioned pie. Sod the caviar give me a pie, a burger or a vegetarian hot dog any day.
People used to say I was reserved and that I was very organized, but you know why I would have a routine where ever I worked, was because actually I am not. I did often forget to call a customer back, or give a bit of information. I would write it down to make sure I got it done. I'm even now seeing that my organizing is still not 100% good, as I need to see a full Calendar on my screen, as I do lose track of dates. Today I did just that, have a online calendar view, as I know it will help me as I go through each week pan it out via calendar view aswell as my current lived in notebook.
As a parent I assumed because I looked after other peoples children that I would fly into parenthood with out a scrape, HOW WRONG WAS I. For someone who never slept sometimes, my son made me see that when kids come along, it is a whole other ball game, and it is a different sleep deprivation.
I didn't have all my bits planned ready for my son, thank god I had a brother and sister in-law to step in as honestly when a baby comes along it is a wonderful thing, but don't underestimate it. They often will cry saying "Yes it's my time now so feed me and yes I want cuddles all of the time sometimes".
So, if you live in chaos then my advice, is delegate if someone offers to help out, and take time to adjust to this new chapter in your life. Parenting is a job, but does come with rewards too.
Many thanks for reading,
