So I’m going away for a week with my
mum from next Sunday to the following Sunday. I run my own business and DH works in office 5 days a week and long hours.

I do all the kids stuff generally from Monday to Sunday, they have a LOT of clubs.

Of course I’m handing everything over to DH to do. He will have some help from his parents who will be able to help on 3 of the 8 days I’m away. Dh will take some half days off work.

cos I’m usually wfh I can do things around my work and of course I don’t have a boss.

im feeling anxious, stressed about leaving the kids (DH suffers from anxiety as do I but his is worse). We’ve been having issues with my youngest sleep but I’m finally on top of that in some ways.

I really hope I can enjoy my week away with my mum without worrying too much about what’s going on back home!

He'll be fine, the kids will be fine. He might not do it the way you do it. The kids might go to bed late, have McDonald's for dinner & miss a few clubs, and that's ok. Go have a nice break with your mum

Thanks! Yes it’s just I know it’s a lot of running around. I guess he’ll figure out his own way to get it all done. He does have his day job to do too!
