Well, the holidays are definitely upon us in our household!
Friday was the end of term, so there was a collective sigh of relief from all the teachers! We had our Christmas do in the evening, which was a cheap Christmas meal in a local pub, and some music from a loud band…!
Can I be honest?? The food wasn’t all that, the music, not to my taste, but it was so lovely to be able to spend time with my colleagues. As a member of the Nursery staff now, our timings are so different to the rest of the school that I feel like I don’t see anyone properly anymore. It was a time to catch up, eat, drink and be merry! Though not too much drink, just a spritzer… I was driving!
I left at 11pm so it was a relatively early night, all things considered, and came home to find the usual mess in the kitchen, but there was definite evidence that the children, and daddy, had been fed!
Yesterday was a housecleaning and grocery shopping frenzy in the morning, followed by a parent consultation meeting at my Lil Princess’s Punjabi school. After lunch, I went to sleep!
Well, if I can’t get a nap in, in my holidays, when can I?!
And today…well I didn’t get out of bed until nearly 11.30am! Ok, so I slipped out to feed the two human babies and the fur baby, but I was straight back to bed!
Now that is what I call a break!!!!
Now, after a heavy lunch at my in-laws, and a short hour chill in bed, Lil Princess and I are getting ready for a birthday party. Hubby Dearest took Lil Man to go and watch the new Star Wars film, and have a boys day out.
Looking forward to a restful 2 weeks off, with lots of festive fun, and catching up with friends and family too!
Enjoy your lead up to Christmas folks!
But I Smile Anyway...
