...you'd think you'd have time for things and plan "Yes I shall be able to blog daily" or "I shall complete that project I stated on 4 months ago" and when you throw in the "no I'm not studying right now" you'd think there was even more time. Where does it all go?
I feel I have less time now than I did when I was at work! Cleaning is only done in emergencies, Internet usage is almost zero, toe-tapping dancing is at a minimum, and still nothing ever seems to get done!
Mind you I've learnt that I did have a very good skill for learning dances last minute and now.. well now it takes me some time, I can still pull the easy one off in 20 minutes but anything other than improver level really does need me to practice.
Ok so I might not be being fair on myself, what with the economic upheaval (ooo doesn't that start sound intelligent!), I have been going through all the finance stuff from energy saving, budget shopping, to all the insurances a person needs under the sun and remortgaging. Throw in the mix that I have the stinking cold that's going round (bad head, throat, ears, runny red nose etc) and Little C I should be patting myself on the back and taking a well earned rest... oh is it dinner time, I'd best be off to peel the spuds.

Told you so! :D
Being at home with a little baby is bloody hard work - and unsocial and looong hours at that. :) And sounds like you've been doing a lot besides.
Your concentration will come back for learning dances etc. Apparently "baby-brain" is a genuine phenomenon, possibly with evolutionary advantages - allegedly meaning the mum has a tunnel-vision to the baby so everything else becomes peripheral and doesn't distract from the care task. Supposedly after a year your brain starts getting back to normal.
Hope you feel better soon, and keep keeping on. :)
What she said. ^
Once children come along it's hard to get anything done. That's completely normal. Don't beat yourself up about it. Abster x
