A few things that holidays have taught me.

I have just been away for a week in Whitby on the Yorkshire coast with a few friends and a 15 month old child. I won 't bore you with details but i have since discovered a lot about myself from this experience.

1) I have a great deal more patience then i give myself credit for
2) When pushed to the very edge of exhaustion i can nap in the afternoon
3) Don't expect your phone to go off every five minutes with people asking how you are. They are enjoying the break from you as much as you should be from them.
4) Don't underestimate how ridiculous some people can be, I have learnt to forgive and forget rather then seeth and regret
5) It won't be 100% nice 100% of the time and it is up to you to make the magic happen
6) I do not want kids. Ever. Seriously. Ever.
7) You will not receive a fanfare when you get in through the door home, it's just another day.
8) Being over tired makes you stroppy and horrible but i have learnt to take it out on myself rather then rock the boat
9) Ask for a hug if you want one
10) Always have an escape plan for when it gets too much
11) I am happy i survived and made a new friend in the process. Her family think i am pretty ace too!

I will post pictures up (i hardly got any unfortunately) when i feel a bit more human.
