Sometimes

Sometimes I butter my bread with a spoon because I can’t be bothered to wash up a knife.

Sometimes I eat trifle with an upside down fork because I can’t be bothered to wash up a spoon.

Sometimes I leave washing on the line for days because I can’t be bothered to bring it in.

Sometimes I leave wet washing in the machine overnight because I can’t be bothered to hang it out (even though I know it will need to be washed again).

Sometimes I leave the water in my bath all night because I can’t be bothered to pull the plug out.

Sometimes I leave a dirty pan on the side for a couple of days because it was too big and I forgot to wash it up with the rest of the stuff.

Sometimes I use the electric toothbrush when it’s flat because I can’t be bothered to put it on charge.

Sometimes I leave my bin on the road for days because I can’t be bothered to wheel it onto my drive.

But I always attend to Iyla without hesitation, anytime of the day or night and that is what makes all of the above okay :)

    Great post. I definitely do a few of those too! My worst ones are:
    Sometimes I leave the ironed washing for days before I put it away.
    Sometimes I don’t unpack after a holiday because I can’t be bothered to put everything away.

    And you couldn’t leave that cute face waiting for a minute!

      Haha, at least you do the ironing! Mine vary rarely gets used! I am the same with holidays too, or even just days out! The bag always gets left around for about a week! x

      Me too! I bought some linen trousers at the start of the Summer but they need to be ironed as they get creased, I have only worn them once! x

    Love it! Sometimes I wear the same clothes for days (with exception of clean underwear of course!) simply because I don’t have time and can not decide what else to wear!
    P.S I NEVER Iron anything!!

    Love it – so true. I sometimes feel I should be doing more with Toby then I remember he has me up every two hours every night and I think – I can only do my best!!!

      Yep, I agree, looking after a baby is hard enough without having to sort out laundry! x

    That list could have been mine. Especially the leaving washing in the machine overnight.
    The main thing is you take care of and love on your beautiful daughter, the rest is unimportant in the grand scheme of things.

    Ah that’s great! Can really identify about the washing. The big question is, if it has been on the line for days in the rain, do you re-wash it??? Shhhh, I don’t ;p
