It was ...

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to heaven, we were all going direct the other way - in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.
Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities
English novelist (1812 - 1870)

Motherhood!


Plodding flip-flops
Groggy eyes
Zombie wobbles
Stiff back
Lactose nighties
Bleeding nipples

Motherhood!








Bad hair
Chipped nails
Sour throats
Ringing ears
Overgrown brows
Forgotten Gucci bags

Motherhood!

Bleach  scents
Peaking weight
Constipation
Curious toddlers
Sulking husbands
Inquisitive in-laws

Motherhood!

Ammonia handbags
Yelling brats
Messy lounges
Endless visitors
Humid climate
Suicidal thoughts

Motherhood!
