Post Pardonne-Moi

I should be out at one of two events tonight – one an art event, the other dinner with two girlfriends I’ve know since high school. I had already committed to the opening so I couldn’t do dinner, but here I am, at home, alone(ish) because the toddler is sleeping (oh god, thank you) upstairs.
I bailed on my planned outing (my partner is working late, I was always heading out alone) because I have a case of Post Pardonne-Moi’s. The feelings of this post-baby state of mind can be great, but tonight it’s the downside of mamahood that’s here.
