We went to a semi-local hot springs resort with our best friends.
Staying in a beautiful private cabin with Mr. L, eating amazing food, relaxing in hot springs and spending some much needed time with my bestest friend, Mama J, was good for my soul. These are the cabins we stayed in!
Except for some Final Four basketball watching drama the weekend went off without a hitch. I don't watch basketball, professional or college, and both the guys said they weren't invested in the games but when push came to shove basketball won. Next time we won't plan the vacation to coincide with the Final Four.
People may judge me for it, but I did not miss my kids. As we were driving to pick them up from their grandparents house I started getting excited to see them again. I think a little break from each other can be very beneficial for both mothers and children. Too much time together can drive both parties crazy.
Coming back to reality is hard. I have so many responsibilities and sometimes being an adult sucks. There really isn't any other way to say it. Bills to pay, kids to take care of, houses to be kept clean, dishes to wash, and mystifying pile of laundry that just never seems to have an end. But these little breaks are what helps me to keep my sanity, what's left of it.
I guess it's time to buckle down and get back to the daily grind.
Does anyone else wonder what she's on? I might need some.
Typing out blog posts is my reward to myself for plodding through my to-do lists each day, and I know they might seem random, and I apologize for that, but to be honest that is how my brain functions. Sometimes I even wonder at myself with all the jumping around my brain does.
Oh well, off to attack more laundry, it really is neveren...SQUIRREL!
