Must be the isolation and loneliness that it entails. Unless you are one who is frequently having guests over, talking to children on a daily basis tends to get monotonous and boring. Sure, there are good days and there are great days. But after doing it for 5 years and possibly another 5 to go, of late, I have been doing a lot of day dreaming. I told the Hubs tonight, imagine if we didn’t have kids……

We could be reading on a waterbed atop a glassed floor with colourful fishes below and blue sky above in the Maldives, sipping Margaritas and slamming tequilas. Playing scrabble and making passionate love. With contraception! And he had to add, “Yeah….and imagine all the handbags and shoes you could potentially have!”

I’m not even that crazy about handbags and shoes. I only become crazy about them when I am depressed. Because really, what do I have at the end of a hard day’s work? Day in-day out….I care for my girls, not having a single moment for myself (although I try very hard to sneak in an hour of exercise or computer time or even just a quick shower!) and I feel as though from dawn till dusk, I am at their disposal. When they are finally asleep, I am too exhausted to do anything else or even go out to meet up with friends. At best, a little attention from the Hubs would be nice but even he, is too exhausted. I know that their livelihood is my responsibility and that my job is to do my utmost best in bringing them up in the best way I know how, but these days, I need to really FOCUS on that goal. For my mind drifts……

So most nights, I stay awake pondering about my situation because I refuse to acknowledge that this is it. This is it – from dawn to dusk I work for my kids and then go to sleep. Getting online, which is the only reprieve I seem to get, is also a challenge. So what does one do?

Am I experiencing a late dose of post-natal depression?

Don’t be sad, Mommy…..

Who is Mamapumpkin?
Mamapumpkin spent 7 years in London committing crimes to gain her Bartlett degree in Architecture. She then spent 7 years as a Stay At Home Mom raising her children as documented in this blog of over 15 years thereafter returning to the Corporate World stronger than ever as the Country Director of a British Multinational. She sets out to prove to all, that you can have anything and everything that you want; if you have that fire of desire burning within and the drive to work hard. Even better with much love.

Mamapumpkin has not only grown corporate businesses successfully in the past but has grown not one but TWO network marketing businesses in the notorious MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) industry, achieving success in under 2 years. She believes in the MLM business model but realises the DRASTIC PITFALLS and great stigma attached to it, understanding EXACTLY WHY the majority would shy away (or RUN for their lives) from ANY MLM business. But open your eyes and take time to understand it intellectually, remove your hang-ups, confirm your research, and you may just want to seize an opportunity. She did. And no, she never went about chasing people for sales. She had a sophisticated system work for her through technology and a smartphone.

She now impacts lives authentically with proven strategies amassed through the last decade of her own transformation offering online coaching programmes and always supports the underprivileged. She believes that we can all have a life of our own desires to enable real contribution into the world. But first, one needs to understand what this all means.

A beautiful life without limits.

If you wish to learn some tools to propel your life forward guaranteed, be brave enough to make contact as her life's purpose is to build people. She operates through a discovery call after which she will commit to helping you. Or not.

Most lose out on an opportunity because they are afraid they would be sold to, conned or whatever fear resides in their brain without even trying. And that's on them.

Mamapumpkin is a living testimony that women really can have a lot. Being financially and time free has enabled her to travel the world anytime, anywhere, doing anything, and she spends most of her days with her children, having fun, and supporting others wherever she can. Also having fun.
