...to want to piss off to log cabin for one...

...with a pile of books, booze and nibbles and ignore everyone for the entire festive season?

No chance of actually doing it but tell me I'm not the only one who's had enough already.

I am with you. Actually I can't be with you..or it would be a cabin for two! But there is something about the OH being home when he isn't usually, a teenage girl whose main ambition is to just flood the laundry basket for clothes she has just put on for a minute.....

What books shall we take? Food? For me a big wheel of brie..some small tart apples and lots of bread.....spicy crisps, houmous...

I am really starting to enjoy the thought of this log cabin.

Sigh. YANBU. Envy

Punk - DH and I both work term time only and I work.school hours around DD so never get any time to myself. His holiday so far has consisted of a bit of laundry, getting the fire going and some hovering, a poker night, trip to the pictures and several gym and jacuzzi sessions.

Mine has consisted of getting up with DD every morning, all the remaining housework, Christmas decorating, shopping, wrapping and card writing, cooking every night, plus trying to keep lively but high maintenance DD entertained.

I have been having a bit of wobble about certain things wrt to our relationship anyway and now we have 2 weeks cooped up together, plus the added stress of dealing with each others parents for Xmas visits ( he doesn't really like my parents and I am barely on speaking terms with his mum).

To cap it all DD has just told my mum that MIL is taking her to the theatre on Thursday so now the granny wars have begun (our mum's would kill each other if we left them in a room together)

All I ask for is a cosy cabin or cottage, a hamper of goodies, a pile of books and Richard Armitage at my disposal 24/7 - surely that's not so much to ask for? Xmas Grin
