I've just finished reading the Sunday Times and there's a whole page article about the pros and cons of having it all - or not - and I got really arsy when the article talks about a woman in the big bad city who is pulling in £1 million a year and has time to 'have it all'! Well - by Nigella Lawson's third best thong - on that kind of money you should be taken outside and shot if you can't!!

Another one is supposed to have come back from maternity leave and fired 6 of her colleagues. In a man this would be called 'decisive' in a woman it implies she's gone slightly mad but we wont say anything since she's just had a baby.

'charged with new energy'?...errr, no
somewhat better organised and wondering what on earth I did with my time before? well, maybe!
finally appreciating the value of having a good and stimulating job that I definitely want to hang on to, rather than taking it for granted? well, maybe again!

are they the mums with cleaners/housekeepers/nannies/no toddlers....not that I'm jealous!

My thought as well, Helenmc,
I also wonder, if their energy is all used up at work, and how much they actually see their kids.
Presumably they must put in long hours, to be promoted.

charged with new energy after giving birth...is that meant to be a joke?
