Starting out!

Sometimes I wonder what it'd be like to live a really different kind of life (lots of times, actually, especially when I come across blogs on the net and the person seems super cool). So this blog is kind of a public diary in case anyone wonders what it'd be like to be a suburban mum trying to practice attachment parenting in between trying to figure out what to do with my life.


My priorities in life right now mostly revolve around my son and trying to raise him up to be a decent person in this world where children starve to death while other people are so rich that they throw multi-million dollar weddings that end in a divorce a few weeks later.


I don't know why his head looks almost as big as mine in this picture!


I'd also like to have a separate life apart from being a parent, which is hard since my son is still a toddler and therefore a lot of the things that I used to enjoy doing are now not possible unless I foist him on a babysitter. Things like starting any kind of career seem so distant right now. 


Jeez, sounds all a bit doom and gloom.. it's not all bad! I'm finding lots of new things to develop an interest in, such as sustainable gardening, cosmetics, animal rescue and interior design.


I probably won't post every day, but I will try to give a brief rundown of what goes on in everyday life.


Today will be fairly quiet. Just came back from toddler gym, which is a program held at the local church. Now going to bake gingerbread cookies if I can borrow a rolling pin and some cute cookie cutters from a neighbour, and then tackling the bathroom cleaning.
