Dear school holidays and breaks I hate you! I hate that my days off from my job fall the same days as you! I'd rather be at work than home in skid hell. I miss you quiet weekend! I miss my Friday nights curled up on the couch non kid related, I miss you to lazy Sunday, you are now filled with a visions cycle of cleaning, cooking and laundry and constant shouts of " stop that" " take a shower" " clean your mess"

I remember weekends, peace and quiet, relaxing in front of the tv, or with a book. Ahh, sweet weekends, how I miss you!

I am missing the quiet time too.SD and her sister who vowed never to be here again just showed up.Its not even a day they are supposed to be here. I smell a large rat.Not sure what is going on.Highly unusual.All we got was "we decided to spend the night".

Oh, God that is a good and funny blog. Halleljuliah!

There are no days without my kids, his kids and various combinations. I can't remember the last time we had what we call 'naked eggs benedict.' Too much info, I know, but let that suffice to speak to the freedom that was once there and I miss, too.

I hear you!

GOD, I hear you. I'm back at my childhood home for Thanksgiving for the first time in TEN YEARS and we had to take the skid. Now she's bouncing off the walls, and she won't shut the fuck up, and I just want FIVE MINUTES of quiet!!!! I miss my home, and this is NOT a "vacation"! And we get her for Christmas break this year, too. Now I have to wait A YEAR before I get any kind of break.
