Tomorrow I'll go on a 2 day school camp. One of those things I absolutely dread and hate. The fact that I am surrounded by a lot of (demanding) people 24/7 is awful. I won't be able to get much sleep for 2 nights, have to be on instantly in the morning and all throughout the day and there is just not much I enjoy about this entire event. I can even say I hate it and if I didn't HAVE to do it, I wouldn't.
Sure, the kids will love it, but I'll be glad to come home on wednesday and sleep in my own bed again. Sadly I'll have to return to work again the next day (and my 2 free days of the week, I'll be camping).
After this wednesday, the school year will be almost over. What remains are 2,5 week, in which I'll have to work 2 days without getting paid (days off). I'll also need to do 2 nights with parent meetings etc...I can't wait till the holiday starts, for real.
I'll just try to relax some more now and then face the next 2,5 dreadful days. At least the weather is nice?
Something else: today my dad had booked a flight on a floatplane for the entire family. Only 3 people at a time could be on it, so we took turns. First turn was my mom, sister and niece. Second turn was supposed to be my dad, brother in law and me, but since my mom etc...hadn't yet returned and someone had to stay with my youngest niece, my dad went next with 2 strangers, and my brother in law and me would do the third round. Sadly, the wind and waves were too strong, and while my dad was still on the plane, they headed for the local airport. I was just on the boat that would take us to the plane, but we had to turn around. So, we didn't make it onto the plane. What a shame, because it was supposed to be quite the ride/flight. Maybe next time. Rosalie, eldest niece, was really excited to be flying though and am happy she was able to. She found the noises and boat ride extremely scary, up to the point of crying, but once in the air she found it amazing.
