It's a shame to say no, but as a #WorkingParent with a school aged child, the school holidays are my main holiday time.

I've e-mailed to say no, explaining why and that I would have loved to go involved. Fingers crossed they check #school holiday times in future!

What's on your #tbr pile as we enter the start of this year?

For me, it's two mouth-watering books that I can't wait to get stuck into: #HowToBeACraftivist by Sarah Corbett and #TheLightWeCarry by Michelle Obama. Both are inspiring and supporting my #YearOfGentleness (more on that soon)

I'm in a big transition phase so, for now, gentleness means posting the picture regardless of the Christmas chaos still all over the floor and eating cereal for lunch guilt-free. #WorkingParent

It's my first day back in the office and big, exciting changes are afoot.

Returning to work after #Maternity leave has been a wild ride that knocked me sideways almost as hard as leaving the workforce to have a baby in the first place.

I'm excited to settle into purpose-driven work this year; balancing my drive for career development with the most rewarding yet exhausting job I've ever had - raising tiny human.

I feel like I ought to post about my professional interests some, as conversations with fellow tech folks is something I’d like to have here. But honestly? I’m just so tired. I have had about 2 weeks of childcare in all of November and December.

Did you know covid is STILL disproportionate affecting working parents seriously, and is disproportionately affecting moms? It makes me angry, to be honest. We’re still left behind.
