My very first post!!

This is my very first post, it's going to be a short one because I have spent far too long trying to select a name for my blog and a template (which is a bit dull so might have to work on that tomorrow).

When i was trying to select a name for the blog Jason (my husband) asked what my blog was for, I'm not really sure but mainly to try and get the mad ramblings that go on in my head out of my head and somewhere else.

Jason has a blog www.mysontom.com which he started when our son lost his hearing to meningitis. Tom's meningitis has put life into perspective for us and as a result I am going to stop working and be a stay at home mum. I can't wait and I am a bit scared at the same time. I like parts of my job (the salary!!) but it has become too much. I work 3.5 days compressed into 3 so the hours are long. The plan was to enjoy my 2 days off with Tom but as soon as he became ill my days off were hijacked by medical appointments. So i just want some time to enjoy being with him and to try and be a better mum and take the pressure off Jason and I. I don't know if other working mums feel like this but I just feel as though I don't do a good job at home or at the office and it's so frustrating.

We recently had Tom assessed by a physio because the meningitis also left him with poor balance and coordination. She gave us lots of exercises to do with him but I don't feel that I have put enough time aside to do them, I don't feel I put enough time into his speech therapy either so here's hoping that after the 8th Nov I will have time to do all that.

Well enough for now, i don't know how to finish a post so ... bye for now.
