And I'm back...

Having 17 days off work in a row has its pros and cons.

Pros:
I had half a month off!
Being able to stay in bed until whenever we (me and the kids) wanted.
Watching lots of TV and movies.
Naps... ahhh, lovely naps.

Cons:
Going back to work.
Going back to work.
Going back to work.

It's like living in some kind of suspended reality. We do nothing but eat junk food and watch TV despite all my grand plans of "taking them here" and "doing that". And of course, doing school work everyday! Weirdly enough, life does not seem normal unless I am in the routine of a work schedule. All life revolves around the work/school schedule. The thought of not working is kind of scary to me. But it's nice to pretend once a year.

Well, I'm back to the land of the working. Yay for me. I was getting used to getting paid to sit at home watching TV and taking my kids to the park.

I have spent my entire morning researching travel packages to Ireland. Me and my hubby have wanted to go for YEARS now and now we have this cockamamy idea to actually move there. We're thinking of going for a week in Oct. After all, how can you move to a country you never even visited? We also have a strange travel phenomena. The first time we visit somewhere we LOVE it and discuss moving there. The second time we visit, it's OK but wonder if it's actually worth moving there. The third time, we're over it. It's just like everywhere else and def not worth the hassle of moving there. But we'll see about Ireland. Neither one of us has ever even been out of the country before so it will be a major culture shock.
