      Me... me abandoning the children and going for a holiday with girlfriends <GRIN>


      After the holiday, usually hubby, children and maid will be more appreciative of my existance! I do this once every 1 to 3 years...
      Yes yes !!! Absolutely agree to that !! But sadly, only hubby missed me when I was away ... Kids were happier with more freedom and less nagging. :faint: 😂

              At least monkeys not monsters. I used to call my kids monsters.

                  Had wanted to do this with some close friends end of the yr after DS' O levels. But alas, maybe it's not meant to be afterall cos Bangkok as at now seems an unlikely destination. Yet to come up with an alternative place ... :xedfingers:

                        TA: FOUR? :udawoman:


                        I have three and already :imdrowning: :imdrowning: :slapshead: :slapshead:

                        I have to wait 10 more years before the first one goes through O levels, don't think my sanity would be so patient! So far, I have been away for a week in 2011 and 2012, and will be again in 2014. Look forward to the trip - as I start to make bookings and pay $$, it seems more REAL.

                        I also go for quick shopping sprees and facials some weekends. Once I took care of my sick children one after another... after 10 days of nursing... I just had to get out - went to JEM for a big bowl of ramen and that felt so heavenly!
