I Keep Burning

I need a break from my kids...I love them but I never get a break! I need a vacation from all my responsibilities....and I never get one. Today just wasn't that great I guess. I wish I had the opportunity to be recharged sometimes but I feel like one of those toys where you know the batteries have been ran down and you don't do anything about it...then you hear those toys making noises in the night like they're possessed....and then one day all of a sudden they work perfectly again....and the batteries were never changed out...just took a long long time for them to recharge inside the same old toy....Crazy possessed toys. I would say I just need a date night but I know I need more like a second honeymoon. It would probably be healthy to take a break since I haven't had one....it's been about 5 years....no bueno. It's just been one of those "I'm losing my identity" days...maybe tomorrow will be a little better...I've got to figure something out or I'm going to go insane.

I hear you about the losing the identity thing. I don't have kids yet but I can imagine how hard that must be. I'm sure you love being a mom but it has got to be so exhausting some days. Hang in there!

Lexie, I totally know what you mean!!! I feel the same way sometimes. Especially lately. Hang in there girl! We all have those days.

Well maybe sometime we can make arrangements for me to come down there, or for you to come up here and I'll take over your kids for a week....we'll have to send you somewhere you can enjoy yourself....this might take some planning

Shar has this whole next week off but right in the middle of it is my 3rd attempt at the MRI, we don't have the gas $ to go up there anyway...bummer. The kids are just as hard and taxing at mom's as they are here. That's the thing that sucks, you take a trip to get away and relax but that never happens cause you still got all the demands of the kids.
