The kiddo started daycare a little while back and I think this is the first week or so since the end of January that I haven’t been suffering from one kind of plague or another. The rest of the house still has a lingering cough but I think we’re all finally in an okay mood for the first time in like.. two months.
It’s funny, now that she’s in daycare, I keep thinking I’ll have time to do stuff but it feels like I have more to do and less time than ever to do it!! I won’t lie though, I sure feel more alive doing it now.
Does that make me a selfish mom? Probably. Oh well. So be it. Women who are Moms First baffle me. They are too powerful. I have realized I am not capable of being Mom™️. I can do Mom Stuff, but being Mom, identifying as Mom is another thing entirely. How do you do it?? I am in awe of you. Maybe it’ll come with time, I don’t know. Why didn’t anybody warn me that being a parent is endlessly hard and exhausting yet fulfilling in a way that I could only imagine before it happened to me? It’s weird that nobody talks about this stuff.
Anyway, in addition to these, I lobbed a couple more comics up on my Patreon last week and I also tried to write a thing about depression and Doctor Who for what felt like the hundredth time but I also gave up for what felt like the hundredth time so you can’t read it because I didn’t post it. The following image sums up the experience of me trying to write earnestly, ever, so maybe it’s something I’ll have to make in comic form eventually. Or maybe I’ll just try to beam the feelings in to your hearts without ever having to organize a thought or commit to a single word. Seems like the best option at this point, to be honest.
Okay I don’t know how to end these yet! Hope you enjoyed these disjointed thoughts on this Lousy Smarch Monday afternoon!
Have a nice life! Bye!
