Going away as a family is not something I take for granted.
Long gone are the days of jetting off last minute to wherever takes our fancy. My bucket list keeps growing âď¸
But being self employed for years and working with your husband has meant that holidays for us never last more than 7 days.
An elderly Labrador and caring for my mum with Alzheimerâs with no other support also adds to the mixâŚ
Plus a now teenage daughter who has always hated holidays and going away - different foods, out of routine days - a home lover.
But this time felt slightly different.
5 days, nothing to worry about and a complete switch off. I even managed to read a whole book! Worth the days of pre-holiday organisation before and catch up after.
Things werenât perfect, but then nothing always is despite what the photos show.
But it was perfect enough⌠âď¸
