Image via CrunchBaseI know us women are supposed to be able to multi task, but what a day so far today!07.30: Wake up to find that baby O has vomited all over her bed in the night and then slept in it!
07.45: Put Baby O in bath and change bed
08:00: Feed Baby O her breakfast as she is all smiles
08.15: Clean up the sofa, carpet, high chair, floor and ME as Baby O has vomited everywhere again
08:30: Find out that the internet in the house isn't working, and the Doctor's isn't open until 2pm
08:35: Frantically try to rearrange Skype mentoring calls as no Internet or phone lines, while entertaining a miserable 9 month old
09:00: Nanny arrives to look after 9 month old while I go to Macdonald's to get free Wifi
09:30: Arrive at Macdonald's to find I've forgotten my purse and there's no plug to plug my laptop in. Also the 'a,bient' music is so loud I can't make Skype calls...
10:00: Happily have rescheduled all calls, explained situation to clients, and found some money in my pocket for a coffee and a muffin.
10:30: Important emails done, can now go home and continue working on my iPhone
10:45: Go to car to find that battery is flat and car won't start. Go back into Macdonald's to start up laptop to charge phone as battery is dead on that also!
11:00: Telephone friend to get her to come and pick me up
11:15: Think friend is lost - standing in freezing cold outside McD's
11:30: Friend turns up, takes me home. 9 month old still not well, so start other car to go get petrol to be able to get to pharmacy after doc's appointment
11:35: Get to petrol station and realise still don't have purse - drive home again, pick it up and fill up with fuel. Doc's not open until 2pm
11:45 Get internet tehering on iPhone working for internet access, Skype still crap
12:00: Finally get a cup of decent coffee!
Baby O is ok, just has an upset tummy - we'll be off to the doc's at 2pm! One car is still stranded at McD's, but luckily the other one is running (although my penchant for old cars may work against me here!).
I still have a days work to do - and I'm knackered :)
old cars are fun - but you can't beat knowing that the (new) car will always start - and run!
