So my ds is 10 months old and I'm a month back at work after mat leave and surgery. I'm literally exhausted which has had some amusing and some not so amusing consequences. Such as having to get changed 4 times whilst rushing out the door late this morning after being repeatedly puked on. Also wearing totally mismatching clothes on more than one occasion as I got dressed in the dark for fear of light waking up the clingon that is my ds. This may not seem that bad until I mention that I work in a college dealing with students and standing in front of classes all day.

So anyway today! This morning was a nightmare I didn't even have chance to pick up my breakfast or dinner never mind make sure I'm presentable. A colleague who obviously saw my frazzled exhausted state decide to compliment me on my new "smokey eye eyeshadow"... I'm not wearing makeup... she complimented me on my tiredness induced bags Blush

Tell me I'm not alone at being completely unable to manage back to work and a baby and being a presentable adult at the same time?!

Yesterday, after a long night with the baby, I was attempting to get the toddler dressed for nursery. It's hot where I live, so I was putting her in shorts and I had her between my legs so she couldn't escape. I got her right leg in fine, but for some reason I just couldn't get her left leg in. It took me some time to realise that I was actually tugging on my own leg Blush
