Day 196

Holidays

This picture looks idyllic, doesn’t it?

Well, it took a lot to get here, and it only lasted an hour or so.

They were so unsettled today!

It’s the start of the holidays and they just wanted to watch TV, all day!

Mila and I slept in and then watched some TV.

Linc came back from camping and was tired, so I sent him to the shower and then he watched some TV too.

They’re usually allowed a little TV in the morning and again at 3.30pm when they’re friends come over.

But somehow, they had it in their mind that it was going to be a TV blow out.

In hindsight, I should have just said yes.

They both melted down and then dragged their feet around the supermarket, while we ran errands.

Eventually, they both apologised and as it was almost 4pm, we watched some of the TV series Alone and called it a day.

Writing it down now it seems so trivial but far out, they just moaned and moaned all day.

I don’t know why it was so important to me, that they not be on TV all day, but it was.

They get so irritable, when they have too much.

In the end they were irritable anyway!

TV day tomorrow.

Mama fail. 😔
