Tomorrow it will be four weeks.
And Monday I go back to work.
It is hard to believe that it was only four weeks ago, and that I have spent this much time at home without a newborn.
I am still pretty much a mess, but life goes on.
I got MPS to download me some Adele.
Big mistake. HUGE.
Within 10 minutes I was a huge blubbering mess of snot and eyeliner.
This song especially.
It killed me.
Literally stopped me breathing.
Fuck.
And then I found this card from my Auntie.
With a lottery ticket inside.
Fuck.
Now I am completely dehydrated so I am going to go and drink some wine water and make Macarons.
And cookies.
And cake.
And a lemon slice.
Any requests? I might even make a motherfucking croquembouche while I am at it.

Bitch! I thought you were supposed to be slowing down!
As much as I want you to bake for me, REST!
With love.
I can’t believe it’s been 4 weeks, that’s flown by.
P.S. Did you see her on Graham Norton? Such a slapper, freakin loved it. Would be awesome to go drinking with.
4 weeks……….already???what the hell does time go???
hugs hugs hugs
Adele is awesome, but a card from the tooth fairy with a lottery ticket is golden.
You don’t know me at all, but I just wanted to say from one stranger to another, that butt chined bitch with a voice like an angel makes me cry too. And I’m not even recovering from a ‘brain fart’. I just get mad at people that are better than me.
Also re:going back to work, I fucking hate my job. It’s sucked the me out of me. I spend the majority of my working days fantisizing about burning the place down. Anyway this comment isn’t about me…..I hope you start feeling more like you soon. And I hope Monday’s not so shit house. It’s the anticipation that’s the buzz kill. I kill the buzz with cake.
Wow that time flew by so fast… Doesn’t sound like u should be back there yet – it better be a winning lotto ticket!
I’ll take a lemon tart please. With fishnets.
4 weeks? Really? My, how the time flies. Hope you’re okay. xxxx
If you can bake while sitting in a chair with your feet up, I’ll have some brownies please. On second thoughts, rest. I’ll bake the brownies.
Time flies :/
Come visit me for more rest and I’ll bake you whatever you want.
strength, lady. i wish you strength. and maybe a few happy songs.
Oh, Adele gets me every time too (though the one that really makes me blub is this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2OHRRO1LlI).
If baking makes you feel better, then go for it (I love baking, but I’m not very good at it), but I’d go more for lying on the sofa, watching mindless crap on TV and napping.
Take care of yourself, and I hope Monday isn’t too horrendous.
Courage, ma belle, bises de la France!
I love Adele! Instead of baking, you should order goods from a bakery to be delivered to you!
