Arrrghhhh

Ok, so I've been trying to plan an escape because I'm in dire need of one and seriously haven't ever taken a night off from being mom in like 4 years!!  Anyway, my friend and old neighbor, Mauri, is driving down to Oceanside, Ca for a family vacation.  For those of you who don't know that's where I was living before we moved to Utah and my very dear friend, Carolyn, lives in Encinitas not to very far away.  So they're leaving sun and coming back on fri.  

It started off as a kinda joke last saturday at our girls craft night.  But then I started thinking more and more about it and was just like, yeah, I should totally see if I could work this out.  I haven't seen Carolyn in forever and I am in desperate need of a little get away for my sanity.  I have just been feeling so trapped and claustrophobic lately.  

Ron dosn't work on mon and I was going to just have him stay home on tues as well my neighbor, Sarah said she would help out and I was really hoping that Elise would be able to help out as well.  Her boss is out of the country all next week and she has to be in the office because she'll be the only management.  I just can't get it to work out and it's breaking my  heart.  I'm wracking my brain thinking of some way I can get it to but I can't see any solution.  Sarah said she would watch the girls wed-fri during the day if Ron could be home at 5 but he said that's impossible.  

This needs to work, it just has to!!  I'm visualizing and praying and everything else that I can think of...

Is it so wrong for me to want to take a couple of days away from my kids to even need to?  ARRRAAAHHHHH

I really hope everything works out. There is nothing wrong with wanting to get away from your life for a little bit. Keep trying. And just know that if it dosnt work out then it wasnt ment to be.
