Diary of a dissertation mom

Ah, here we go

So here we go!

I found my way back in!

As I said it was nice in church, they have a little crying room at the back of the church (unfortunately that concept isn't known in my home country), and going there was interesting for Tom: other babies, toys, colored windows, and, above all, music. He enjoyed every moment of it, smiled a lot, wasn't fussy at all.

Progress on my dissertation: none.

But it's 8.44am right now and I already did today's assignment (I assign myself a task every day), more interpreting of missing excerpt.

I also read something about the psychotheraeutical effects of re-telling one's hi-story, about the effects of repression of memories.

 

Today I want to go and find some toys for Tom, he hasn't very many (some bears, two rattles), but since he develops so quickly we (my husband and I, so yes, there's a hubby, too! And how much I love him! And the little one!) decided to get him some toys. Sensible toys. Now I have to browse the Internet for Montessory education and Montessori toys. We have a bouncer that is nice but it came with some additional arch that you can prop into the bouncer. It makes awful sounds, is made of plastic and the songs it plays repeat themselves every minute. Tom hates it after 5 minutes.

I hope I find something useful and affordable. Having a baby is sometimes tantamount to exploring a new universe. And consumation is made so easy, most of the stuff seems not worth buying it but the add make you feel soooo bad if you refuse to buy what everyone else has, soooo baaaad.

Will talk of the results later, will do some more reading now as long as Tom is asleep.

This Blog is a crossover of a first-time mom experience and her attempt to raise her four-month-old son and write on her PhD dissertation at the same time. Should be fun.
