I just survived 5 days of SAHM cum work from home.
The first 4 days were manageable,
with the husband at home too.
I knew all along a SAHM has alot to do at home,
but I just didn't know it's THAT MUCH!
7:00 AM:
Honeybun wakes up.
I will make milk for her, while the husband watches over the
crawling walking "I want to touch everything" monster.
7:30 AM:
Changed the diaper after she finishes her milk,
put her in her play yard,
switches on the TV (baby TV).
Walks away from a whiny baby (who has some separation anxiety LOL)
to cook her porridge.
I brush teeth, pee & wash the face.
Switches on the laptop to check emails.
8:00 AM:
Honeybun shitted so the washing butt and changing diaper goes~
Steamed some buns for Honeybun & maid to eat,
and freshly squeezed orange juice for her and the husband.
8:30 AM:
Feed the buns & orange juice to Honeybun.
9:00 AM:
Bath her or rather attempt to bath her.
Dress up the crawling monster and my back's gonna break already.
Feed her water and coax her to sleep in her yaolan.
9:30 AM:
Monster is asleep and I get to work.
In between, checking on porridge, blending purees if required.
11:30 AM:
Monster wakes up and lunch is served.
This is a nightmare,
she decided she hates porridge.
1:00 PM:
Gives on feeding porridge,
and substitute with bread.
1:30 PM:
Whiny monster playing with her toys in the play yard,
while I try to get some work done.
Oh, ya! I think I ate lunch too, I can't remember.
2:30 PM:
Gave up trying to work and go inside the play yard to accompany
the separation anxiety monster,
who clings onto you and then walks away,
and clings onto you and watches TV and walks away,
and then running into your arms and patting your back,
and fake cough and demand to be patted back on her chest,
and rolls on your lap and looks at you charmingly.
3:00 PM:
Exited the play yard to make milk for her,
and the monster screamed like crazy.
Feed her milk and coax her to sleep again.
3:30 PM:
She fell asleep.
I get to work again and pour myself a cold drink.
5:00 PM:
Honeybun's up and bring her to walk around the house.
5:30 PM:
My back has broken.
Put her into the play yard and she screamed and whined.
I checked the emails again.
6:00 PM:
Dinner is served for the monster
and it's nightmare again.
7:00 PM:
Gives up feeding and the maid happily eat the rest of the porridge.
7:30 PM:
Bathing time!
and attempt to dress wriggling monster.
8:00 PM:
Play in bed time!
8:30 PM:
Feed milk and monster zzz FINALLY!
9:00 PM:
I have a life now,
go back to working (if I haven't finish for that day),
read a little bible,
checked instagram, facebook, personal emails and it is midnight.
Time to sleep!
FRIDAY
(NO HUSBAND AROUND TO HELP!)
Honeybun decided to shit 4 times,
nap only 1 hour,
and I couldn't get any work done.
And the maid give me pattern,
said her eyes pain
and the current eye solution we gave her to use is not good.
Damn it and tell me she wanna buy other eye solution!
FUCK! HOW TO GO OUT!
LAO NIANG NEED TO WORK AND TAKE CARE OF THIS BABY!
In the end, digged out my personal eye drop and gave her.
TA MA DE,
still feedback to me that it is very good and nice for the eyes!
THAT IS EXPENSIVE DE WHAT!!!
ALL THIS TIME,
talking while I'm trying my best to coax the monster to ZZZ!
I'm so glad I'm going back to work,
honestly.
and so glad my parents in law are back!
I don't know how some mummies can cope and yet,
do the household chores themselves.
They are really really amazing!
