Mom is sneaking away...

mominiowa · Post by **mominiowa** » Sat Oct 08, 2005 7:55 am

:sneaky: I have had it....I am full to the brim with sadness and everything going on...So I am leaving..I have my van loaded and I am headed up to the cabin. My hubby thinks I am NUTS as it is only 59 degrees out...but I need an alone moment and the kids are at their dads.......I can not sit in that hospital anymore, I can not sit at my moms and play cards anymore, and I can not hide in my bed with out being paged by somebody..Don't get me wrong - I love my family, and I love his- but I have spent more time on the road driving to and from Omaha to the hospital this week then I can handle...so I am running away.....Good BYE......Adios........Hasta (sp?)...........SEEEEEEE YAAAAAAA!! ...oh yeah AM I BAD??

Most likely You'll be reading this when you get back from the cabin! Hope your "healing time" was great for you! Everyone needs to have a "Quite" time /place every now and then, to be able to "recharge" their batteries!!!

Go, go,go. Sounds like you deserve and really need it. Sometimes we just need "ME" time. Sit in front of the t.v. and eat rocky road out of the carton. Don't make your bed and if you have a swing, bundle up, take a cup of coffee and enjoy the scenery. Relax. relax, relax. See you next week.

Do it MOM I hope you take a good book, and have a radio so you can dance, dance, dance... Dancing by yourself to the radio is great therapy.. I do it often I think I'm Ginger Rogers.. or Gene Kelly when I put my Tap shoes on..

ENJOY SWEETIE, YOU NEED THIS ESCAPE.. :-6

Take a lap top so we can all come with you.

You'll probably be back by the time you get this, but I hope your alone time was very restful. Drive drive drive, with the radio/CD player blasting, and let your cares roll away. Hope you come back refreshed and strengthened.
