good morning, quick post as i am off to work in a bit
I have a dilemma guys and would apprieciate some advice
My parents have asked me to go away with them for a week, a break away from everything. When i mentioned it to hubby and son they both seemed quite shocked and wanted to know why i felt the need to have a break from them
Now i have been with my husband for 26 yrs, married for almost 23 of them and this will be a first, he however, goes away with the cadets a couple of times a yr, he is out with them 2 nights a week and often for a day at weekends flying and things. Teen comes and goes as he pleases.
Am i being unreasonable by wanting to go I pulled the plug on the family holiday cos the kids wanted to bring there partners and that would have stressed me an awful lot.
hubby and myself have talked about going away, but unless i sort it out, book it etc, it won't happen.
I feel selfish now, parents motives are good and also i think they would apprieciate the company (they squabble all the time :giggle
Its not instead of taking time off with them i have a weeks hol with hubby in july, that we have no plans for yet.
what should i do guys, I think i might be damned if i do and damned if i don't

One day at a time, one step at a time
As your OH goes away with cadets without you I cannot for the life of me work out why okay for him and not you personally I would explain it this way and how can he argue
Also the break would do you good and you and hubby can go away together two afterall its only a week x

Loved your post for yesterday WTG you.
Re your dilemma - what dilemma - go, you are due a break from your usual routine. As OH goes for trips and days out without you it's high time you had a wee outing. As you say it's only a week. If necessary you could say you're going to help your folks - play the getting on a bit card if required. Actually thinking about it your folks could be completely able. So you say you're going to make sure they don't get up to mischief!! ;-)
Hope my singletons approach works for you.

Absolutely NOT
I actually think YES you should go
it will be wonderful for you to recharge your batteries

wondering how they will cope for the week without you Hun
but one thing for sure they will cope....
you must go
happy Weekend lovely x

Just popping in to catch up and say hi. How lovely to go away for a week
Your hubby and teen are probably just a bit surprised at the turn of events especially if it is something you have never done before, but why shouldn't you go? go away and enjoy it and don't worry bout home as they will be fine.

I WILL lose 6 stone! :)
I think you should go too!
Just because you're married with a family, doesn't mean your whole life has to revolve around them. Your hubby goes away, so why shouldn't you?
It's a break from routine - grab it with both hands and get packing! lol
You and hubby have a week together later. You could book something for the two of you before you trot off with the parents.........just to stroke his ego and keep him sweet
Oh ignore me Mandy! I used to go away with my friends at least once a year when I was married, which is probs why I'm divorced! :8855:
