You cannot imagine how many times I bellowed to the rooftops, “HOLY SHIT, YES!!!” to the wisdom in this piece. Thank you for so eloquently putting to paper what goes through my knackered mom mind on the daily. 👊🏻

I have found getting the messages I learnt as I grew up that were running me to not run me a difficult but very rewarding experience.

I don't do domestic stuff unless I feel like it. And then the energy is there and it gets done and I feel satisfied. I have found other paths of dealing with the domestic lead to frustration.

It meant voices in my head about doing the vacuuming for example got a bit loud for a while but now they have gone away. I left the vacuuming for several months!! and did a quick brush-over with a brush and pan when I felt like it. Nobody noticed a thing - which was the opposite from the voices in my head who were very insistent people would notice. ☺️
