Becky, Obrigada !
Are you feeling better ? I hope you are ...
I got back late last night from our trip to the theme park I told you about. The girls had a great time and it makes us so happy to see them like that. But it's always soo stressful to travel with kids, and this time was no different. On Saturday night I was so frustrated with them, they were behaving so badly... Then we took them to McDonalds, which is always a fail-proof way to please them.... Bad idea.... I cheated like crazy, before I knew what I was doing I had had a large serving of fries and was attacking a chocolate sundae. I'm usually so 'well behaved', I managed to stay on track while going to good restaurants in Europe and now this... It made me so mad to loose it at McDonalds of all places... I guess it was the stress of the day, maybe deep inside my 'bad side' managed to convince my 'good side' that I deserved a break after all, that I had struggled with countless toilet trips, 'I'm hungry', 'I'm hot', 'I'm cold' complaints and general whining the whole day, that we were celebrating my kids' fourth birthday or something like that... I know, all lame excuses, but the fact remains that I did cheat and I feel terrible about it. Yesterday I was back on track and I don't plan to keep kicking myself about this for the rest of my life. I guess this serves to remind me that I am addicted to food (carbs...) and that I can never, ever let my guard down for even one second. Well, there it is, the story of my weekend. It was not all bad, of course, when they stop whining the kids are great and we did manage to have a good time on the rides and roller coasters after all.
Well, guys, that's it.
Take care you all
Ana
