When you are a mom and you want to be productive but your brain is running a mile a minute. Your mom brain “You should be getting baking done so that the kids will be able to eat a healthy snack.” Instead, you end up pulling the package of bear paw cookies out of the snack bin container. We have a shelf of snack bins in our house. Which I feel like I am always having to refill from the Costco boxes in the pantry. We have a small kitchen which has no pantry and have accommodated small refillable containers to hold snacks. We used old margarine containers to be the snack bins in the cupboard. No fancy Amazon finds here, just Costco up-cycling.
As a mom do you stop and think maybe this would be fun to do as a job, (baking) or maybe I could take up doing this artsy thing? Just to realize you don’t have time for that. Or I don’t have the manpower or resources to take on the task. A dream had been in the back of my mind was to create a magazine. One that would inspire and appeal to mothers. What do we have to look up at? Besides the many that plague the stores as we leave. To see maybe another celebrity pregnant. I have so many mothers around me pregnant it is just the stage of life we are in. I am very much done being pregnant! My crazy house is full and maybe just a bit overfull. ☺ But as you see my mind has now wandered off again. It becomes more clear as I write things down. Studies have proved this also. Writing or talking. Trying or failing you won’t know or be calm to focus on the task that might really need to be done. Even just sitting with a hot cup of coffee.! Yes that’s special. Yes that’s 100% needed some days.
