On the train to foundry / leaving babies…
Visiting the pangolin foundry in stroud/chalford today to check my wax for Olympic commission and do some fire and angle grinder training. Hope not too tired for it.
I had a quiet day yesterday but have reached new depths of exhaustion and I put showergel on hair instead of shampoo. I’m being woken by both son’s at the moment as my 3 1/2 yr old (Small Marshall) has decided he doesn’t want to wear nappies at night any more, and although I ‘lift’ him (ie sit him on potty) when I go to bed, he doesn’t always make it thro night without wetting himself again. So last night I went to bed at 12.30, was woken by Small Marshal at 4, then by Tiny Marshall at 5.50 for a feed, then alarm went at 7 to finish the feed and get ready to leave the house by 7.45.
My husband has taken the day off work to look after the 2 boys, which will be nice for him to spend more time w Tiny M as I tend to monopolise his care. It was also great as I didn’t have to drop them at my mum’s before catching train.
But I did find it hard leaving Tiny M, it will be the longest i’ve been away from him yet. I left him w my mum from 10am-8pm when I was finishing a bronze at the bermondsay foundry about a month ago, but this will be aprox 8am -10pm. He is so sweet and beautiful and tiny, I just had to give him another kiss before I left.
But its nice to be out in green hilly countryside on a sunny day, and looking forward to more time at the foundry.
