Diary Entry – 21st May 2024

Did you know you can follow us on our journey on YouTube!!

Welcome to todays diary entry! Another awful nights sleep with the Beef, it must be teeth related or whatever but it is becoming really hard work, for me certainly one of the more challenging times of parenthood. Accompanied by me being probably tireder than i have ever been before i my life. I felt so tired this morning and that is despite me having almost a day off yesterday. I felt more tired today than i did yesterday. It was this morning though that Mum spotted the fact that there were a couple of his canine teeth popping through so hopefully that is to blame and we can get it over and done with and out of the way.

Still catching them ZZZs

It is ok for the Beef as he can have a 3 hour sleep in the middle of the day to help him catch up whereas me and Mum are not that lucky. A lot of the time is spent just trying to get through the day and keep on going but i am finding it quite hard at the moment. We are trying to get early nights but it is the 4 or 5 times he wakes up that absolutely does you in. There is absolutely nothing that can be done about it. Just have to keep on going and trying to support each other. Keep working as a team. That is all you can do.

I’m off again this Sunday so hopefully should give me enough time to try and recover or at least start to get over this next bit of teething. To be honest i thought we were done with teething now but apparently not. Well i am really looking forward to Vanlife Festival next weekend. This will be our first show which we are not working and able to actually enjoy it. I am going to properly wind down and have a really low key time. I may even turn my phone off for a few days and totally disconnect from the outside world. The saving grace also is that mobile phone signal tends to be awful at these events anyway.

We are coming up to about 10 days away for that so the long term weather forecast on my phone is starting to unveil the weather for the festival so hopefully it can be not raining. I don’t even want hot weather my definition now for good weather is just not raining. Just don’t rain. What ever happens just please don’t rain. I need to have a look at what is on during the festival. I have not been to a festival in about a decade and certainly my first one with a child rather than me being a big idiot with my friends.
