it is simple ...

covid times


I started this blog 10 years ago at a time when I was home with my then three-year-old. 

Life wasn't overly busy in 2010, one kid - business in its infancy, but I don't remember the says been this slow. 

The domestic situation now seems very similar to back then, and whilst the teen doesn't require my attention and interaction as much at the toddler did, why does this pause feel like a painful crawl. 

 Perhaps I've become so busy being busy that I've forgotten how to actually slow down. Or perhaps its when we are told we have to pause rather than when we have chosen to pause that it feels like this.

Either way, I'm getting used what we are calling this new norm, no doubt I'll be fully comfortable with it just in time for the next phase ... xx
