Breaks Over

No really it has been great, no school, no schedule, no certain bedtime, no alarms! We as in me and the boys have truly enjoyed the Christmas break, but as of this evening we are back to the rituals of bedtime stories and brushing teeth....yes we did skip I think a few nights well at least I know the kids did, we were bums! We lived in our pj's until we just had to shower and go elsewhere then are warm and cozy home, I think this is harder for me to give up then the kids! I actually felt depressed today knowing its back to the grind in the morning. I love sleep and my best sleep is early morning to 9 but in the real world 6:30a.m. will have to do! I have even mentioned homeschooling my three sons and I said it out loud to my FIL, he said REALLY no it was just a thought! Who am I kidding I can't keep them productive while on break they would be rotten if they were home all the time! There have been fights, bites, and timeouts galore but we have survived and would love to have another week off, but this is it! I have been running every week for the past nine weeks so that's the only structure I've retained and I have been fighting to give up but have made it through the holidays a few pounds heavier but I'm still running and will run tomorrow so wish me luck! There is a lot to come this year that we are planning on tackling and I'm sure there will be the unexpected also so lets make plans to plan for the unexpected too! I mean as much as you can! Good night all!
