Part time content creator, part time mum
Can you imagine when Grey looks back on photos and asks where mum was? Was she working? No it wasn't her shift.

She’s obsessed with trying to prevent anyone getting what she perceives to be a better deal than her. Even if it’s her own husband! Remember when they were coming back from holiday and she complained that Rich had the ‘easy’ child because Rudy slept but Lily ‘had’ to keep Grey entertained.
Such a strange way to live. She’s a very unhappy person.

It’s so regimented. I find it so bizarre!
Exactly this! Can’t get my head round it!
I must be weird then! I mean I don’t call it shifts but me and my husband definitely take it in turns to get up with the kids and the other one gets a longer sleep or a longer shower.
I think it’s more the fact that she WILL NOT be there in the morning to see her little girl’s face because “it’s not my shift”. Like they have a written contract
I don't care about them doing shifts or whatever, I'm not a parent, I have no clue. But it always seems as if it's really difficult for Lily to enjoy her children and she seems so surprised when she does. Just like when she talked about Halloween and how cute Grey was. She seemed in disbelief and a bit sad too. I wonder why that is.
Omg she said it as if she’s chained to her bed! I get parents get tired and it’s nice to have more time in bed but she could hop out and see Grey’s reaction, then pop back into bed. Wtf it’s like she thinks her being there will somehow make Rich have to do less work with the kids so she won’t get upI think it’s more the fact that she WILL NOT be there in the morning to see her little girl’s face because “it’s not my shift”. Like they have a written contract
soz for making out like it was sooooo weird
it really is conceiving of it as "shifts" that is the weirdest part and i'm probably just jealous of more frequent lie ins. guess they also both have no where to be in the morning?! we have to all get up at 6.30 in order to make sure we all have time in shower, breakfast etc. and get out the door in time 
Since having Grey they have always behaved as divorced parents sharing custody. So very strange how she will have nothing to do with them on 'a work day'. Maybe that is why she has lunch in her precious loft?
Yeah the shift thing is weird! I mean my lie in is 7.15 am instead of 6am!! Haha oh how times have changed!soz for making out like it was sooooo weird
Shoot ready! 
No, not at all. On the weekend my husband will often get up with our baby so I can sleep until 9ish (I’m still breastfeeding all night at this point). I think what caught me off guard is:
a) the term ‘shift’ feels so clinical and unnatural within a home and,
b) her job, her life generally, lends itself to flexibility. She could easily come and see Grey open her advent calendar. But she is choosing not to because ‘it’s not her shift’. It’s like saying ‘oh, I had the opportunity to enjoy a moment with my child but I chose not to because between 7:00 and 9:00 she’s not my responsibility’. Just odd! Can’t explain it!
Also isn’t Friday supposed to be their ‘family day’ where they’re both off work? Lily has mentioned it multiple times that they spend Friday doing something together. You’d think then in that case they’d both get up to get ready to go to do whatever they’re planning to do that day. You know spend the day as the ‘family’ 
Is really just the stupid way she says it and the fact that she has to say it and POST IT and did anyone notice it was a piece of torn up handwritten note probably with instructions to look for the gift from under the (grimey sofa seat)? Ewww
Like a few have pointed out before she often creates unnecessary hassle for herself over a normal situation and then proceeds to explain all the tit that we dont need to know about/ marvel over some hack she discovered etc which all really shows she becoming more and more dim-witted.

Exactly! You’d think she’d break her usual shift pattern for once if she was excited to see her daughter’s reaction…she’s so bloody weird
