#10amwithtea

#10amwithtea. This time I confess that even though I tried hard yesterday to be positive. Have a better day. Stay calm. The day went 🍈 🍈 ⬆️ quite quickly. To the point where last night I sat in the bath and sobbed and sobbed. Sobbed that I got angry and shouted Again! Sobbed that I’m failing my kids because I can’t do this. Sobbed because I was offered a place in the school “key worker provision” but then feel guilty knowing they are stretched. Sobbed because a friend messaged me something and then I poured my heart out to her. Then it was like a relief. That what I need. All those little niggly things that come out over a cuppa. Just poured out to her in one swoop. This situation we are in still is 💩. I think because most of us have played by the rules and sat tight for so long we are exhausted with it. Most of us are at breaking. We just need those hugs, that light at the end of the tunnel. So this maybe another day. I may be accepting this situation we are in. But that doesn’t mean it going to be rosey every day. If you haven’t got this. That’s ok. X https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ8UV3Ll5d_/?igshid=18h2l5e9fj28o

We followed the bin lorry all the way down our street chatting to the friendly binmen, then played in the local café playground to burn off some energy. I had a cuppa and 4yo enjoyed playing and running about. #10amwithtea #10amwithcoffee #communitea #communicoffee #freerangekids #freshair #getoutdoors #mylifeinthesesquares https://www.instagram.com/p/BsIS-7hl1mE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=wfomcf3k2dkq

My #10amwithcoffee today was a cuppa and natter with my best friend. We popped in to the large shopping centre in town first thing after the school run then had a restorative coffee. #10amwithtea #mylifeinthesesquares #communitea #communicoffee #cheaperthantherapy https://www.instagram.com/p/BqxHwYzlVmz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dqvy5lohc4hy

My #10amwithcoffee is a much needed coffee with my best friend. This morning hasn't been brilliant, teenagers very reluctant to start the week and let the whole Street know. Late on the Nursery run too. A soothing cuppa is just what I need. #10amwithtea #communitea #communicoffee #mylifeinthesesquares https://www.instagram.com/p/BqW2QM5FUS4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xq9a8pllj8tc

My #10amwithcoffee today is a café cuppa with my best friend. We've both got teens and have had a rough morning. Much needed chat and breather. #10amwithtea #communitea #communicoffee #mylifeinthesesquares https://www.instagram.com/p/BqE2MSTFsPz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tnwwhk7pubil

Homemade posh coffee today for my #10amwithcoffee as I try to catch up after a week with a poorly eldest. I've baked a Bacon and Egg Pie and a Double Chocolate Banana Bread, done lots of housework and there's cookie dough in the fridge for me to bake after school. I'm on my second coffee and having a sit down before compiling our Meal Plan. #10amwithtea #mylifeinthesesquares #communitea #communicoffee #housework #baking #batchbaking https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp9POSIlvRr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1jcdded1z51i6

Self-care cuppa with friends. I'm still full of cold but needed a cuppa and natter with my friends this morning. Cheapest therapy there is. And the coffee is excellent too. #10amwithtea #10amwithcoffee #communitea #communicoffee #mylifeinthesesquares #coldhamscoffee https://www.instagram.com/p/BpjYvreF7VL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12baxj9uo765m

My #10amwithcoffee is at our local café which has a brilliant playground so 4yo can burn off some energy. Homemade muffin tin apple pies for a snack. I'm feeling really grim thanks to 4yo for passing on his cold. #10amwithtea #communitea #communicoffee #mylifeinthesesquares #coldhamscoffee https://www.instagram.com/p/BpWcR7UFdN2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1wqk3d0um67fi
