I just lived (barely) through FOUR long and oozy days of caring for a tot with the stomach flu, only to get double whammied one day into "wellness" when my oldest got the flu next.
Calgon, take me away!
I really need to get away sometimes. Like now.
I'm thinking I'd like to get in the car and drive a few cities away and meet my girlfriend for coffee and a walk and a talk and a long and leisurely dinner. I think I might have to send her a note and see what she's up to.
When you have a bad day or a bad week, do you fantasize and make an escape plan? Do you ever follow through on your plan?
Comments:
I definitely dream about getting away but actually getting out involves me driving down the street to the coffee shop followed by the fabric shop, lol. I don't actually get to go anywhere and when I do go to these two places it's MAYBE twice a month and NOT when I REALLY need it. I'll definitely take what I can get, though!
i dream about getting away and the once in a blue moon i get my sister to watch aiden i usualy have a doctors appt. or something else i cant take him too!!
