Do you rush around like a madwoman in the morning making sure everyone else is fed and ready for the day while you slug down a cup of lukewarm coffee?
oh wait… that’s me… only I drink tea. And I have a strict policy that I will only reheat a cup of tea 3 times in the microwave. After that, I start a new cup.
Do you pack your kids off to school with a lunch that includes at least three of the four major food groups (including the carrots that hardly ever get eaten) only to realize that it’s 2 in the afternoon, you haven’t eaten all day (no wonder you’re so cranky!) and the only reasonable thing to do is inhale the leftovers from 2 nights ago?
me again… another policy: I only send the carrots back twice. After that, it’s compost time. And if I don’t get fed, I get cranky WAY before 2!
Would someone please explain to me why mothers who are so dedicated to their children’s heath and nutrition are so bad at taking care of themselves in this department?
Feeding our families is an act of love and caring. Don’t we deserve the same?
Seriously!
So what did you have for lunch today? And perhaps a better question:
what will you have for lunch tomorrow?
