So Out of Place!!!

I always wondered what category of people I fell into, and now I think I may have fallen into my spot!!!
Chic Real Bohemian?? I don't quite like the sound of that...But sometimes we really have to be true to ourselves!

I have always known that I was some sort of hippy at heart, my whole upbringing was very free spirited and little by little I have found myself to be going back that way too. Even more so now that I have a child of my own...yet, I think sometimes few people would be able to guess it! For sure my wardrobe consists of a lot of  colourful, way out there pieces of clothing, yet most days I'm pretty conservative. I don't like to stand out, I know when I can or cant, what I can wear and when...

Yet, if you are to talk to me, I really don't fit in, and I hear myself and I make myself feel like I'm some weird person..Yes my baby wear's cloth nappies, and she what she sees on TV is some Chinese cartoon from the 1970's...and we don't feed her meat, or have had her vaccinated!!! Yes her favourite toy is a can filled with bear top's, and we let her play in the recycling bin and get dirty in a heartbeat!!!
As for us, up until 2 months ago we did not have a TV, we sleep on a mattress on the floor and we  don't shower every day or wash our cloths as soon as the day has ended! (come on some things can be worm more than once before they are truly dirty, and if you sat at home all day doing not much do you really need another shower??)...I like to make as much of our things as possible, and almost everything we buy come from the OP shops...Even our cars are second hand!!!

Yet we are very normal people, we are just out of place maybe??
Well that's the way I feel!!

Is it Us or Them?

 I mean men and woman...
Sunday afternoon...I come home at about 4pm, I worked this weekend!
Saturday, here at my local job in the clinic and today in Brisbane, on a Pamper Cruise.
Im feeling tierd!
And as I walk in the door, I cant help but notice the garbage bag, I left there the night before to be taken out!
My Partner  was home all weekend with our 18month old daughter...And I think to myself, how do we "us woman" do it?
Baby is asleep, and he is busily doing last nights dishes.
Ho do we manage to do all the things we get done? How do we cope with it all while they cant even undo the swimming bag from Saturday morning? (its still sitting on the lounge floor, wet towel and bathers still inside)...Yet I stay calm, and I wonder...Is it us or them?
Do we just try do always do too much?
Maybe they are not so wrong to not notice all those little things that at the end of the day are really nothing, trivial!!
I often have thought that He was able to give better quality time to Tullula, as he did not think of the things that had to be done like I do...Its true that when she is with me she ends up windging, as I'm always disapering to get this or that done...
So maybe after all  it is us!!!
But for sure there is a limit, when I go to the loo, the paper roll holder is left empty, sure a new roll has been taken out, its sitting on the toilet head, right next to the old empty one!!!!
I have to laugh!!!
We truly are wonder woman! I send all my best wishes to you all out there, getting it all done, keeping it all together in silent! As we do!!!
