I imagine now is as good a time as any to announce my new post as the Institute of Historical Research’s Training Fellow in History and the Humanities. I’ll be working across @ihr_history & @SASNews to support historical research via bespoke training for all career stages.

I’m at a conference today. The organisers just told me that I can’t bring my daughter to the networking session or the dinner tonight. I couldn’t get a babysitter. This is one of those times, as a single parent, that you really miss out. It felt like a gut punch.

Just a reminder to myself that being a single parent while working full time (since she was 3 months old) is a superpower and I am officially awesome. That it is all.

Slightly better than my daughter who decided to scream, “Help! Help me. Help!” when an immigration officer asked her if I was her mummy.

I’ve not been in Belfast 6 hours and strangers have offered to help me with my toddler everywhere I have gone, I was gifted a free coffee by a café owner AND every person I have spoken to has been kind and considerate. England really is the most miserable place to live right now.

We’ve taken ourselves out for dinner instead.

I'm [not] striking because this year Liverpool uni made me redundant straight out of maternity leave during a global pandemic then stood by & watched me with my baby as I cleared out my office in their new multi-million pound building. #whyimstriking #UCUstrike #LivUniStrike

My ex had me in such a depressive state that one night he brought another woman home & acted like it was a perfectly acceptable thing to do. When I hit the roof, he told me I was overreacting. Some men gaslight women so much that outrageous behaviours become normalised.

The only way to get energy companies to respond is to email them with the word OMBUDSMAN in the title. They’re very responsive all of a sudden once you threaten to escalate.

After spending the entire summer on my own with my 3-year-old, I just flew to Glasgow, took myself out for dinner, went to a gig, stayed at a hotel, slept in, took a long bath, went for a walk, got lunch and came home again. I love my kid but man do I feel like a new person again

For the people hating on this post. I had my daughter in childcare for the duration of the conference. My babysitter cancelled for the evening so I approached the organisers to ask, in advance, what I should do. Sometimes plans fail. This is why flexibility is so important.

An update. I arrived early at the evening venue with my daughter to speak to the lead organisers and request that we come to the networking event not the dinner. I have been told categorically that we will not be allowed in and my daughter is not welcome. No apology whatsoever.

Thanks everyone. I’m thinking of taking her to the networking session beforehand. I get that we’ve paid for dinner just for one person but excluding her entirely just feels so pointless. Should I go anyway?
