Friday Mad Mum Moments - No use crying over forgotten milk!

I had a crappy morning earlier this week as I had another mad mum moment. Mornings are always a mad rush for me as I will need to do chauffeur duties. So that particular morning, after dropping Dumpling, I rushed off to the office and just as I was reversing into a lot, LO AND BEHOLD. GUESS WHAT I SAW?

THIS!
Well, not exactly this clipart but a half finished bottle of milk! Which means that Dumpling did not have her usual amount (more so at around 100 ml only!). She usually finishes the milk at home but we left home earlier that morning and when that happens, she would usually finish it when she reaches school.

However, in my haste, I totally forgotten to take it along with us to her class and left it in the car instead! So I had to do some damage control to call the school to let her snack earlier (we packed a small sandwich for her mid morning snack time) and told my helper to feed her lunch earlier. 

You have no idea how guilty I felt the whole day not having looked after her well enough to fulfil her basic needs - food! I guess I need to remind myself S-L-O-W down and not zip around like a tornado so I do not rush over things. Sigh...

My Friday Mad Mum Moments

Mad mum moments are what I call my post epidural moments.

I used to have a really great memory before childbirth and so I am definitely putting the blame on epidural for this one. Being a FTWM (full time working mum), this is my schedule: rushing for client meetings and meeting deadlines, check through and replying to emails during dinner time, homeschool my child after that AND THEN read up / research on more homeschooling ideas / resources after my child goes to bed. That's the kind of mad moments I have.

Some of my friends ask me how do I juggle, well, I don't. The rhythm goes out of sync once in a while. This is the proof: I dug my bag for my laptop and this is what I found. Ha ha ha



Legos anyone?

So, I am not going to tell you some BS that "yes, you can handle it all and it all comes naturally." I do mess up once in a while and I do have my MMMs. I am not a superwoman and I am not perfect.

BUT I do my best. And if my best is gonna end up with a packet of legos in my bag once in a while (or my Urban Decay Naked Palette in my Dumpling's bag), it is fine. I am a FTWM and I try to manage and managing does not mean I have to be perfect.

Anyone wanna have a laugh together at the end of a work week? What are your Friday MMMs? Do share! I would like to explore doing a linky party too - TGFMMM so let me know your thoughts.
