What do you do when faced with a really tough decision?
I tend to get a bit tearful, irritable and willful!! It makes me feel like I'm sinking when in fact I should be swimming. Anyway, if I hang in there long enough I get to grab onto the lifeline that someone throws in my direction.
Well just a week ago we were faced with one of these tough decisions. Our charters start in April, we're planning to take Shannon & Rowen with us along with all their homeschooling books that we've collected. We have 3 charters booked and each of them runs for 10 days at a time.
Our original options looked like this:
Do we hire an aupair to come with us and base her and the kids on land whilst we're out at sea?
Do we hire a hostess to go along with Craig on charter whilst I stay behind on land with the kids?
Now we have a new option which is the one causing the tears, irritableness etc
Do I stay here in Underberg and send Rowen back to Underberg School? He wants it. Shannon will carry on with homeschooling as planned.
After much deliberation, we decided it would be in everyones best interests to let him stay at school. Our first charter run is from April to June so Craig will just have to manage these ones on his own. She is coping well with the homeschooling programme.
Megan is loving being at the Academy in Stellenbosch.
Time to put my Big Girl Panties on and just get on with things and see how it all pans out.
