After the week I had, I need a drink, my husband and a whole lotta food
A lot of times, people don't get the whole "stay at home mom" thing. I'm not sure what they think it is, but it's definitely not what I'm living 😂. I hear and see people's opinions, in which they are very much entitled to, and one thing I can say for sure is they judge based on what I give them and what they choose to understand. It's actually fun to witness. Some think it's fun, others think it's torture and then there's me, thinking it's simply my life. These are things I think about during my strolls...yes darling, I deliberately take walks. That's how nice my life is. I'm kidding, I just don't have a car 😂
Ever since the move, I spend a lot of time with Panda. Like a lot. No like A LOT. TOO MUCH TIME IF YOU ASK ME. Sometimes it's fun and other days I wish my husband was here already so I could take a nap for a little, lousy year😂...or 5. Anyway, on days I don't want her "gone", I realise just how much of a cool kid she is. She counts to and from ten, can identify herself with all 4 of her names, Panda included and my gosh does this child speak!!! Tjerr she talks so damn much that when she sleeps, I try not to breath. Crazy, I know. But really, she keeps me on my toes. Makes it kinda hard to study and work but motivates me in the same breath. She's a paradox, I wish to get a break from her, yet my days are meaningless without her. Who would have thought that such a person would exist in my life? Her birthday is coming up and we are almost 2!! And yes, I said we. I mean I'm celebrating that I looked death in the eye during birth and came out alive with a child, a few stitches and emotional trauma. I'm starting to think I didn't come out a winner😐 nonetheless, I'm just really excited for our big day.
Another reason to be grateful for this week is my career. Work is coming along great, thanks to my amazing team who's not a team but a team to me, and as for my love life, just like my husband, is still nonexistent. The audacity of this man to keep me waiting 😤. RUDE!
The highlight if my week though, has to be the guy who said I lack humanity and quoted a line from 'Redemption song' by Bob Marley. Yup, I'm living the dream
This was a week filled with laughter, tears and a whole lot of Panda...overwhelming yet satisfying ❤ God has truly been good man! Let's see what greatness we will achieve this coming week.
Love, Rethabile
- The Stay at home mom
P.S May we all find the strength we all so deserve to face another tomorrow.
