There are times in everyones lives where a break is well and truly overdue. For parents, there is no exception despite the 24 hour nature of our job. Men tend to find it a bit easier to escape, a quick stop in at the pub, a round of golf once a month with the boys, Friday night footy with some mates....but as women, when we become mothers especially, we tend to do it a little less, and I don't know why!?
So now, once a year, I plan a girls weekend (for the partners of Michael's mates). The prerequisites are: we must go for two nights, accommodation in a house so we are all together, no more than a two hour drive, drinkies and girly chats are a must, and there must must be a day spa within a quick drive!
This year we are heading off to Rosebud, but I think we are most looking forward to our whole day visit to the Peninsula Springs! I myself, have been feeling quite claustrophobic lately, so I am looking forward to a bit of R'n'R. The house we are staying in looks beautiful, I can't wait until we arrive.
So before I head off and enjoy some 'me' time without hearing the screams of MUM, I have been spending lots of quality time with Phoebe. Today involved a quick pampering for my little princess. She thinks I am going to Queensland (because that's where her Dad went earlier this year on his boys weekend). Although I will miss her terribly (and Michael of course), I know she is in good hands.
So folks, I'm off duty this weekend!! I hope you all enjoy yours as much as I am going to mine!
