I like posting random things. Like I have recently. I don't knwo why. I think because its light hearted, or something like that. but this is the stuff that fills my head latly so this is what you get.
first. a few things that might surprize you about me.
I don't hate potatoes any more.
I swear in my head everytime I stub my toe (not proud of this)
I usually like cleaning other peopls houses. their dirt is not as dirty as mine.
I am scared of the water, the dark, and the unknown.
my dream vacation starts with going to sleep at like 9 or ten and waking up at like 6.
that leads me to the wrest of what I wanted to post.I have been thinking about my dream vacation at night as I am falling asleep. And here is it.
We go stay some place, preferably someone elses home, that is emaculatly clean and they will clean it, for me, oh and it is extremly organized too. my kids go to sleep at 9pm or maybe even 8pm. that last sentance is a major aspect of our vacation, if not the high light. Dev and I get some time to stay up together without the kids and either play video games together (we never get to do this becaue lily gets jelouse and takes over), or watch a movie and have some romantic time. but go to sleep by like 10pm. thats another hightlight. then my kids sleep through the night. I wake up at like 5 or 6 feeling completly rested. again that never happens. I have always wished I could be a morning person because they are so productive. but I have never woken up before 7:30 and felt good, let alone been in a remotly good mood. any way back to my vacation. I get in the shower, get to put on clean clothes that match, style my hair, put on make up and make breakfast, all before my kids wake up. once they wake up we eat, and get them dressed, brush their teeth and comb hair before 8am. then once all that has happend....I don't care what we do the rest of the day. they can plan that part.
*ok so there is a reason its a deam vacation......IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN. its impossible. mostly because I am expecting rationale resonable things from a very independant and wild two year old and a baby. And by the time they are old enough to do the things I expect of them for this vacation to work...they will not want to be there or they will but they will want to do something else or this one will be missing her boy friend and the other one will be mad cause that one took her spot, and so on. Or else I wont sleep becaue they will have snuck out to meet some boys and I will have no idea where they are. I say that because thats what I did every time we went on vacation when i was a kid. oh well. gues I will have to move on to planning somehting else like my dream house or something.

I guess it is dreams that keeps us going because we can't control the reality of the here and now.
I love this post, Tali. As a young mother, I can totally relate.
