i'm going to cornwall next year with family coming over from NZ,the rellie asked me if i could sort out a cottage and after much searching found somewhere and reserved it.no problems there i hear you say---well yesterday i get an email from NZ to say she's found a place and booked it.shes given no thought to the fact i have 2 young children,the place has no garden and one of the bed is a sofa bed in the living room. next i have a friend whose over from the usa,they came to visit this morning and my "lovely" nine year old decides to ask the daughter of my friend to stay for the night and doesn't think to consult me. and to top the lot of,worst of all,the dishwasher isn't working properly. thank you all for listening to my moan

it's alright karen.step back take a deep breath and count to ten.then just relax and try not to get stressed.if this fails scream your lungs out!!xxx

lisa, thanks,i think it may be the screaming,i've given up on the counting, whats even better is i have to go shopping which is not much fun with my own two let alone a four year old that doesn't know me, still things can't get any worse,can they?

what it is to be a parent.i know how you feelxxx

well i'm off to waitrose,wish me luck and call out a search party if i'm not back by 5pm,

good luck karen.while your in waitrose get yourself some vino to calm the old nerves a littlexxx
