But, oh ye gods, remind me never to do that again..... the teens were "bored" all the time, the ten year olds were attached at the hip almost, and the three year old didn't like that at all.... Dad was barely mobile, Mum was trying to keep everything together and me? I spent a lot of time with the three younger kids mediating on arguments and disagreements, or holding a teenager in tears because they were a) homesick, or b) about to break up with the boyfriend over the texts that weren't quite how they wanted them to be... or c) tipsy and either of the above at the same time.
Next year? I want to go away on my own some place, even just for a few days, no kids, no parents, but lots of relaxation time!!! Right, off to do the laundry, and unpack (we got back too late yesterday for me to do more than pass out after clearing over 1000 emails!) and then I shall start shifting pups in my head to wake them up again and get them moving! See you all real soon!
