It seemed selfish, and I also missed all that offers me comfort: my home, my children, my pup and my routine. Then I recalled why I took the extr a week, and encouraged myself to accept the adventure. The truth is I have been feeling stuck for a while. I felt frustrated by domestic chores and the lack of spontaneity showing up in my days.
I was bored but too scared to admit it. An opportunity to travel appeared and although nervous to leave my teenagers on their own, I grabbed the chance to escape and booked time out from my family, my chores… shopping, cooking, cleaning and being mumma-uber.
