I had such a shit day today queuing up for almost three hours at the Consulate to pick up my passport. Needless to say I had little one with me. You would think someone would be realistic and would just say: please, just go in front. You have a six month old with you. No. Someone from the Council came and took everyone’s names so they can get the passports ready. After I waited like an idiot I finally got inside. The same person who put my name on a list told me I have a baby and I should not wait. NO SHIT!!!! I had a baby three hours ago as well and I still waited.
But no more of this. While on my way back I got an email notification about a blog post from my favorite blogger out there https://notaneffingfairytaleblog.com . It didn’t have the usual headlines but coming from her I knew it would be good. And it surely was. I found out she was nominated for Liebster award and I was so happy for her. But wait. It gets better. She nominated ME. I mean…ME? I was smiling like an idiot walking down the street thinking the person I follow religiously found my writing interesting enough to nominate it for an award. You know the song: I feel good…. na na na na na na na… I feel good…Yeah. I do! So thank you https://notaneffingfairytaleblog.com from the bottom of my heart. It means a lot to me.
I have to say I am a new mum, writing to keep my sanity, having wine (lots of it) for the same reason and drinking coffee only until it is ok to have wine. I am on maternity leave at the moment and I am in such a shit place right now trying to find a house to move into but hitting a massive brick wall just cause I have a baby. So, everyday I hear: can you afford to rent this place? “f” off would be my answer. I can’t afford anything but I like to waste your time and mine, specially cause my six months baby is not leaving me exhausted at the end of every day. I started writing a book about four years ago. In 2014 i got to the middle part and I am stuck there since. I had a major block and I couldn’t write or think. This blog is my new beginning so I hope to get there one day.
