Some days, well, I'm not going to lie, it's been over a week this time, I just want to walk out the door. I fantasize that I get into my car, drive to the airport, and fly well, just about anywhere. Maybe somewhere warm, with a beach, a masseuse, with non-stop gin and tonics or endless glasses of REALLY good Merlot. Can anyone help me with this? Can anyone help me escape? Really, can you kidnap me?

So, yes, I fantasized this all week long.

There are some days that I just don't want to do anymore laundry, dishes, friggen cloth diapers, dinner, counters, picking up toys, AHHHHHHHH! Let's not even talk about Little Miss S escaping out of her bed for the one millionth time this year!!! I won't go there right now because it makes me want to reach for that Merlot!

The worst part, my daughters have whined more this week then I can remember. The amount of time outs and "I'm going to send you to your rooms" I had to endure this week was ridiculous!!

I was actually screaming out loud to God this week. Better Him then the kids I guess. He heard an earful, trust me on this. I screamed some things out to Him last week, that I would not want ANYONE else to hear. 

It's been a tough week.

I'm just hoping for a better week this week. If not... I'm googling Mexico Gettaways or maybe even Hawaii!

Hey, a girl can fantasize, right?

i'll pick you up in the car i bought in my dreams last night.

the orange one on my page.  yeah, i just batted my eyelashes and the guy gave it to me.  yep, a girl can dream.  fantasize.  whatever. . or if you want a black one, i could do that.    or powder blue?  name your color, i'll get it ....

i've had my days & weeks like that too.   the most jaw-dropping moment is when zachary got out of the car @ school in a major funk, looked back at us with a wicked scowl as he walked away and stuck his finger up at us for a final statement.  yeah, it was NOT the thumb either.

My baby's the same lol. He was whiny and cranky all week. But then I realized he was getting sick and that was making him cranky.

The first pro concert I have ever performed, he went onstage lol and he got popular afterwards. The first pro musical I ever joined, he whined all throughout and almost fell off the balcony that my husband has to cut off filming. He is a handful but compared to yours...you have six and I only have one so I can imagine what you are going through.

I could not relate more!!  I feel this way a ton!!  I must say, we have had a great few days, which have been a blessing!  But, I feel the way you do quite often.  Then I feel all quilty about it--GRR! 

Girl--Just think....your fantasy will actually come true in January.  W/O the fancy massages, beach or Merlot.  But actually, I would take Africa over that anyway....cold showers and all!!

LOVE YOU!

*sigh* I'm there too and my little one just got back from her dad's house on Saturday. Apparently, it's allowed for her sisters (her stepmom's 3 girls) to tell their mom (Jas's Stepmom) that they don't like her. I had Jas in time out for a few minutes last night for not listening and she started yelling in time out that she didn't like me anymore. Yeah. That didn't help the length of time she was in time out. Anyway, try the Sandals Grande ocho rios in Jamiaca... ahhhh I miss that place. Rodney promised for our 5th anniversary at the latest so max 4 more years and I'm there again. OMG I need a vacation.

My kids are all out of school this week, so sign me up for a trip next week!

Actually, I am doing some black friday shopping. If you are able to do that, the break from the house makes it well worth the 4 am wakeupcall.
