Thank you all for the hugs and well wishes! It's been a day! One of the twins is still fighting it hard. Not out of the woods yet. MWP, by all means if you think you can tackle getting the twins to sleep through the night and on the same napping schedule in the same room together, I'd be forever in your debt! Meal requests? Name it. Done. Unlimited beer and wine. Done. Any other services I can offer? Name your price. I'm all out of ideas, patience and energy. 🫠

MWP reporting for duty, but I should warn you… my twin-whisperer services come with a very specific payment plan: unlimited wine (non-negotiable), at least one “you’re a lifesaver” per day, and full creative control over bedtime vibes.

But truly - no price needed. I’ll take one look at those babies, work a little Midwest magic, and have them synced up like a dream… or at least give you a solid 3-hour stretch so you can remember who you are again 🤭

In the meantime, you’re doing everything right - even when it feels like you’re running on fumes. Hang in there. You've got my moral support (and backup night shift in spirit)

I bet you read the best bedtime stories, you lifesaver...

Sounds like a fair payment plan to me. Deal! 🤝 I've worked all the Midwest magic I can muster myself but to no avail. Have at them, Ma'am! You have free reign to work whatever magic you have hidden over there! 🙏

Thank you! It's been a rough last year and lately it just feels like there's no end in sight, so I'll take all the support I can get! 🫂🙂

In all seriousness - I hope this little cozy corner of this wonderful world of Lit serves as not only a nice distraction, but also a safe place to land for you. We're here for you

I'd buy you a dinner and a beer if I were there. Since MWP is watching the twins anyway. 😉

I truly appreciate that. Lit, and especially this thread has been very helpful lately, so thank you to you and @Shymidwestgirl for setting up camp for everyone in this Cozy Corner! You're BOTH life savers! I'm okay, today was just a rough one. Tomorrow's another day and I'll bounce back. Always do. No other option when it's your kids!
 
Milk and one sugar please 🥰

Are you from the UK too?
Sunny Sydney, Australia. I work in the coffee industry haha. Long hours.

Pours a lovely blend from Ethiopia. Adds enough milk to balance but not drown out the lighter notes. Adds one teaspoon of sugar. Hands it to EyesOnHer.
 
Thank you it really was. Chilli butter salmon grilled to perfection, served with fluffy steamed rice and togarashi and mirin dressing stir-fried vegetables.
It sounds marvelous. I like to oven roast salmon and put a compound butter on the butter baste it as it cooks. I always serve it with rice but lately my go to has been wild rice. Then often I will do butter steamed baby carrots.
