People will probably tell me to treasure this time; but I hate it.
People say “get all the sleep you can”. I’m not sure how that works. Can you store sleep in some kind of central reserve and call on it at a later date? If so, can I have some of the sleep I deposited as a teenager?
In another way, if life, work and common decency allowed it, I could happily lie in bed and sleep until the baby gets here. At least I’d feel committed to something.
I’m useless at the moment. I can’t engage at work, and feel a bit of a spare part at home now that more-or-less everything that needs to be done has been done. There’s a sort of end-of-term feel, but the teachers won’t tell anyone when the last day actually is.
Which is a shame, because I wanted to bring in a toy.
I just want this bit to be over so we can get on with the next bit.
I know I’m probably going to regret saying that.
