10 cheap thrills by slummy mummy

having done some research on what other mummies are blogging about, it seems that the done thing is to write lists. as in "10 things that make me happy", "10 great things about being a mom" or "10 jobs i would love to do".

finding this kind of list a little irritating (and guessing that praising the virtues of motherhood is too predictable) i thought long and hard about what to include.

here's my final selection

1) any stolen moment on the lap top or reading my book

2) pregnancy vanity. same old vanity, different new shape.

3) tricking the deep sleeping hubs into doing the night feed - "your turn darling, i've been up once already"

4) any kind of sugary, alcoholic or caffeinated thing. naturally

5) having absolutely nothing going on inside my head

6) http://www.soundoftheicemelting.blogspot.com

7) thanking god (sincerely) that i won't be trying to conceive when i'm 40

8) builders wolf whistling then seeing my bump. tee hee

9) morning swims in my big tummy costume. with a hot shower afterwards

10) olga, our fabulous cleaner
