In Ireland they have "holidays"which is a standard time every year when you go away and vacation somewhere out the country. So, the daycare (creche) took their holidays from August 1st through the 19th and boy-oh-boy do they deserve it. Granted, they have a good number of children to care for but each room maintains a ratio of 1 to 3. One person to three kids, they are licensed, trained and backgrounded (garda vetted). I will never again take them for granted, because holy shit this is hard work. I don't know if it's just first trimester tiredness in combination with Adrian being gone editing for most of every day and night but I am basically a single mother right now because he absolutely has to get this work done. I feel for him, he gets no sleep and has to be on the phone all day long arranging everything for this production. I am cooking, cleaning, doing laundry, feeding/cleaning/bathing/entertaining/working also so it's been a rough week, to say the least. I'm SO tired by 9pm and proven to be worthless to anyone after the kids go to bed. I have started to line my stomach with anything sugar related, basically binge eating and then crash to sleep around 10 or 11pm. FUN! On a better note, at least my kids are healthy. I've started to juice for the boys to get going on this GAPS diet in prep for Jack's new diet but the timing couldn't be worse. Oh well, it always could be worse. RIGHT!?
