The Party’s Over

We wandered off to Sydney on the weekend.

May I just say – travelling with a toddler? Dear God. Although the trip down was the worst. Public transport to (far-ish away) airport and waiting around for an hour or more once checked in meant that Bubba Boy was just a little grouchy once we got on the plane. Thank God for gluten-free lollipops 😀

Then we dumped Bubba Boy on his grandparents for a day, and wandered off to a wedding. Absolutely gorgeous, and lovely to see a friend who’s been looking for decades finally find his Ms Right. Reception? Not enough seats, that was my only beef 😉 Otherwise great fun, and enjoyable-but-weird to catch up with a number of people I met 10-15 years ago and haven’t seen for about that long.

The next day… I crashed. Woke up when hubby brought me coffee so I’d be up and dressed in time for church. Rolled over and went back to sleep. Eventually managed to get up, grab some brekky… and head back to bed. Slept til 5pm. Yup, 5pm. Sigh. It’s not as though I had a late night, we were back and in bed by 9:30pm. Obviously I have a bit more negotiation to do with this whole heart condition thing. Bah humbug.

Today – trying to stay awake is the top priority! 😀

  1. Maybe you crashed because you knew it was safe to do so?

  2. OMG he finally went and did it! WOOT! Hope your feeling better hon ((nome)).

  3. Glad you had a good time.

    Hope you are feeling better.

    Sydney rocks !!!!

  4. the trick is to get the kid unconscious for as much of the trip as possible. i would often be given sugary goodies a bit before a trip, so that by the time the travel started, I was well into sugar-crash-induced-naptime, and even at that wee age i was a lazy little turd and wouldn’t wake up until well after we arrived at our destination. also, sleep was more fun than putting up with adults (although rambling incomprehensibly at them was a close second)

  5. Good to hear you had a fun time, even if you’ve had a sleep hangover.
    Hope you’re feeling more sprightly soon.
