    How to have a stress free weekend

    By bigpumpkin | October 12, 2008

    We’ve taken Tee out of her homeschool because we decided that a different approach suited her better so as of now, she is school-less!!! And driving me nuts at home :-)

    Actually, I am rather enjoying our time together. I have become her school teacher and she says she loves me as her teacher much, much, mu…………chhhhhhhh more than her homeschool teacher. There is a big debate going on within the mother circle as to how much we should push a child (which I’ll discuss in another post) but for now, I am playing with Tee a lot at home whilst injecting learning as we go along. Tougher for me but hey, she’s my daughter and I love her to bits.

    This weekend, we had no commitments, no parties, no meals with anyone else and it was pure bliss. It is always weekends like these that we savour so again, I need to tell myself that I should just say NO when it comes to birthday parties et al but oh, it is so difficult. You know, when you have been friends with somebody for a few years and they always attend your birthday parties, then you should only reciprocate, right?

    Whilst I do enjoy company, well good company that is, it really is so nice to just be able to do nothing and go with the flow. Just the Hubs, Tee and I, driving around aimlessly, lounging around freely, talking rubbish amongst ourselves and laughing like it’s the last day on Earth for laughing.

    I love my family……
