Where we are in the world; it is just about time for the annual skids holiday... and once again I am faced with the usual thoughts regarding upheaval in my usually peaceful home...

And when I say upheaval folks I don't mean my step children... I mean the accompanying crazy that come from, yep you guessed it the children's mother...

Been gone for ages...

Hi folks

Been gone for ages and lots of new faces on the blog boards.

I just haven't had any time to sit down and read anything... As most of you know we ended up with the kids from July last year due to "illness" of sainted mother. On top of my 40+ hours working week I've been dragging kids here there and everywhere.

Disengage or not...that was the question???

Hi just a quick update...

Well we had "the talk"...

I said : You have two choices:

1. I stop doing EVERYTHING... from the cleaning; to the expecting the skids to be respectful etc etc... all my list of complaints (I purely step out of the "family unit" and you deal with EVERYTHING.

OR

2. I continue to do the Cooking; ironing; helping with the kids etc BUT then I get to expect the correct treatment and behaviour from said skids... right down to the discipline and respect!!!
