working, WORKING, MOTHERING, EXPLODING !
When going back to work hits home... My problem/difficulty, like many working mothers, is finding a balance between work, home, "home"-work... Yes, all 3 because we working mums have 3 different status types during the week. Professional status, home -in - fluffy - slippers relaxed status and finally, our role as home executive and care-giver, keeping the home running status. It is not a simple task to balance the three, and, in fact, I am beginning to wonder whether it is a science. I am not scientific! I am trying desperately to have a sense of humour about the quandry I find myself in, walking in circles between the three. DesperateAngloHousewife I AM! This affliction we call "modern woman" seems to be an endless, open throated scream that few of us can surmount. Is this equality ? Even my cleaning lady expects great things of me..for example, to clean the house before she arrives! Last week she growled at me for not having sewn my husband's butt
