Breast to Bottle

Oh little baby, it has been so long that we have been attached from part of me and daddy, you were hatched. For many months I provided your full nutrition but for giving up I feel the need for contrition. But now little baby, from the breast you occasionally drink, certainly not nearly as much [...]

Mounting

Mounting dishes Mounting laundry Mounting work Mounting pressure Mounting fears Mounting guilt Never so many wishes In such a quandry Never felt like such a jerk Need to have a refresher of how from these tears confidence was built. It doesn’t matter how much I feel I’ve conquered and won, in this battle that’s motherhood, [...]

Resolve

A whole year has come and gone and it’s time to be resolve to change my wicked ways and be a better me than I have ever been. I resolve to be more organized and go down a dress size or two. I resolve to plan ahead more often to have dinner ready on time [...]

Laundry Lover

A tit a tat, what is that? Seems like I have a job to do. Some suds and a splash. Sweet! I found some cash! If only the laundry did itself during the night in stealth. I wouldn’t even know and it wouldn’t show it’s face to me at all. Everything’s folded just like in [...]

What a Waist

Only a day at a time as I wait for the decline of the waist before me. I’d love for it to waste away in only just a day. I struggle with the jeans that I had before I remember that size four and now it’s almost a chore to get back to a shape [...]
