Now, I can't say that my destination was paradise, but then again, being alone sure helps.
I called my prince charming yesterday afternoon and told him I was renting a hotel and running away. My kids were asking, "Why, Mom?" I squeazed each of their little faces and said, "You are one of the six reasons I'm going."
I wish I could say I did incredible things, but I painted my nails, slept, read a little, slept, took a drink of water, slept. You see the pattern.
I came home this morning to a nice clean house. Prince Charming definitely knows what I need.
I do feel bad for him though. Can you imagine being called at work and told your spouse is "running away" for the day? Poor guy probably thought I was going off the deep end and not coming back. Well, I did go off the deep end, but I went with a life perserver attached to the bank. Can't get too far!
For the record, I love my family, I love my kids, I love my husband . . . . Sometimes I just have to take a breath.

Well heck ya you love em. That is why you left them. Why you didn't leave them for a bit longer and head a tidge further north is beyond me. I guess you can only love them so much. ;)
Nice! Next time I want to come.
Good for you! All Moms need that once in awhile.
