So sometimes, you've just gotta pull yourself up by your bootstraps.

pull yourself up by your bootstraps
That is what I said to myself this morning. It has been a trying few days. There has been work, and a broken down car, vomiting, rushing around, a car going to the wreckers, volunteering when you'd rather not be, trying to find a moment of quiet, more vomiting (and other delights), a new car, work trips out of town and this morning we added conjunctivitis to the fray. But if there is anything that being a mama teaches you, its that you just can't take a day off. You can't crawl back into bed and pull the covers up, as much as you'd like to. Because there is a small person who needs your attention (and someone to administer their eye drops).
So sometimes, you've just gotta pull yourself up by your bootstraps.

So there today too. Hope you are all feeling better soon! x
Oh yea there's nothing worse than being sick when you're a Mum(oh except being sick and having sick kids too!. Love that cable tunic. I think I've seen that pattern somewhere and thought I'd like to make it. I'll be interested to hear how it turns it.
Clare, thank you so much for the lovely brooch you sent me - I love it! I have worn it to work today and have lost count of the compliments that I have received ( wish I could say I made it). I hope that you get well real soon, it is really hard to keep going when you are unwell and everyone is depending on you. Your knitting looks really good ( I love knitting cables - it always makes knitting the garment more interesting).
big hugs, and a warm pot of tea to you x
You have my full sympathy - we've just had a month of it as well... hope things improve soon!
Oh dear, yes I wish sick days were available to mamas... Hope you get to put your feet up when your guy gets home! That dress looks super amazing btw!
