It's come to that point in my mat leave where I have been sitting in the house for five whole months. I'm pretty much down with raising a kid - until the next challenge is thrown into my path and so am thinking of what to do in the meantime.
Decorate.
Yes, the same old walls are getting boring to stare at and I need a new perspective. This led us to Ikea. On a Sunday. With a baby in tow. Have you ever had to queue six buggy deep to get on the lift? No, it was a new experience for me too.
The only problem is that I am trying to decorate every room at once and only buy one or two items. While I desperately need to decorate the hall, it's the spare room I have selected as my first project of choice - after all, we are going to be visitor-tactic in the next few weeks so it's only natural that the family should have somewhere nice to stay.
Here's hoping I stay focused on this room and get the job done whilst trying not to cover N with paint splatters. If he does get splattered, at least he can't answer back or clipe me in to his Dad......
