RIGHT THATS IT......

im never ever ever ever going away with our 2 for a week/weekend/night again. EVER

We went to st annes for the night last night, of course i knew they would want to watch their normal things on tv etc so we took DVD,s etc, took them to a big pub with a play centre in it, it was very quiet was was nice.
DD was tantruming/meltdowning you name it, i got very tearful and spent 10 mins in the pub loos crying.
Then to top it off this morning i forgot their bloomin frosties and the hotel didnt have any, so tantrums, the landlady was very nice and patient she made DS what he wanted for breakfast even though it wasnt on the menu and when it came and he took a bite he said loudly "OOh thats mingin, thats not normal sausages"
he whole dining room turned and looked, oh i could have died.
I did tell him off cos he knows not to behave like that in public but we,ve come home and DS has gone straight into our bed (which is what he does when he feels sad) and DD wont stop winging/crying.
So im not doing it again, and i wanted to go to the lakes for a weekend this summer.
Im just haveing a i feel sorry for myself rant.

The joys of being away with SN kids! It happenend to me so many times. DS can't cope with being away from home, different food, anything really but each year I'd hire a cottage or pack the tent and try and get away for a week so the other two didn't miss out. A family holiday.
It was always bloody awful cos of DS. He wouldn't eat in cafes'restuarants/pubs. He'd sit rocking with his hands over his ears or shout I want to go home over and over and over. The sauce wouldn't be Heinz so he wouldn't eat the food or the baked beans weren't heinz or the pasta the wrong shape.
argh
But I have this fantasy idea of a lovely family holiday! Now we have DD2 with CP we just don't bother. I take DS2 away camping by himself and leave DH at home with DS1 and DD2. I do feel sad though.
Next time dose them with temazepan
