Chocolate for breakfast? Ah go on then.

Apologies for my long break from blogging, i have wanted to get around to it for a few days now and low and behold the house work took number one priority. Yes thats right still have not won the lotto, therefore do not have a maid yet. *sigh*

So i went away for the long  weekend and may i say it was absolute bliss. Just what the doctor ordered i would say, even though the doctor said everything was fine and didn't order anything. Oh yes the doctor? In case you had forgotten last week i was awaiting blood/hormone results to find out why my energy, libido and appetite had all gone missing. Well the results came back and despite the fact that i was a walking zombie with a hubby who was feeling a little unloved, everything was normal. I think now i just had to pin it to stress and exhaustion, in need of a small holiday perhaps?

The holiday helped alot. The energy was aided in the form of late morning sleep-ins waking up to the sound of the beach outside my window. My appetite grew to like the bacon and egg breakfasts and nights of dining out, and my libido? Well i started taking a herbal supplement to "make your hormones run at their best", it started working after just 3 days.

Holidays always come with a downside or two but don't they? We only travelled for 5 hours in the car, however the cranky, bottomless pit in the back seat seemed to stretch that out a little. Yes, bottomless pit, the 11kg toddler eats more than i do. The thing that really bugs me though, is the minute you get home, the tidy spotless house you walked out of, instantly becomes a bomb site. BANG- 5 loads of clothing to be washed. BANG- a car full of food scraps (because when you need a little peace and quiet you just let them have the damned bag of chips even though you know they are just going to tip it straight upside down don't you?) BANG- a fridge full of squishy fruit and chunky milk that you just know you should have tossed before you left.

Definately worth it though, i feel new again, at least until about 2 weeks down the track where the holiday buzz has disappered and im pining to go away again. What did everyone else get up to for their long weekend? Did anyone else try to sneak a chocolate bunny into bed for breakfast without the littlies noticing? Consequently letting the little ones with super smelling/hearing powers eat a chocolate bunny for breakfast?
