Flying the coop



If you read this blog regularly you will know that I am a real family girl, a mum who spends lot of time with her kids, who has a small business, who has a wonderful partner and a busy life. You probably know that I get a bit worn out at times, like we all do.



Now my kids are getting a little bit older I do spend the odd night away from home, but usually with one of them! Besides the times I've been in hospital having babies, oh and when I had pneumonia, I have never been away more than one night.



Are you sensing something? Yep, I'm heading off today for TWO WHOLE DAYS & NIGHTS. I almost can't believe it. Typcially though, I am have been mildly stressed about it all week and making lists, checking them twice, making sure everyone has what they need before I go. Planning how to pick up from school, who will take Sunday to her friends party, who will pick up Mark from hospital (small procedure), ballet, netball, haircuts. It is a huge amount of organising and now I'm well and truly pooped.


But hey, I can't wait to be down at beautiful and historic Queenscliff with some beautiful and hysterical girlfriends. Will I have laundry withdrawal? I don't think so. I'm sure I will miss my sweeties but it's just what I need, a break from the day to day and hustle & bustle of family life. So go on, someone, push me out the door! See you soon lovely people xo
