Failure
OMG I am such a scumbag loser. Not 12 hours did I make totally unplugged. The Interweb, she is addictive! The car is packed. Mostly with wine. And aspirin. And cheese. Twill be a good time. When I mentioned this trip to a certain acquaintance who also has young children, she gave me a very funny look and said something about how she could never do that, leave her child and husband alone for so long. Maybe a lot of people feel that way, but for me I am trying to realize that there really isn't anyone tallying up Good Mom points and that there is no prize for the person who never does anything nice for themselves. All that would make me is mean and bitter. So give me dirty looks and make remarks behind my back if you must because I just might win a prize for Happiest Wife and Mother this year.
And with that, I will leave you until Monday. For reals. Maybe.

Am jealous. Have fun!!!
I actually did leave my husband and kids for a week and went to Japan and it was SO FUN. However I divorced that husband a couple months later and found that to be the most fun of all!
Anyhoo, I don't think I could really go off on my own now, without present husband, but I think all moms need a huge ass break for themselves so that they can be the good moms they want to be.
So drink some for me would ya? And seriously, have FUN!
Me thinks someone is jealous. Have fun and don't let that person bother you. In fact, make sure you drink one just for her.
Giiirrrlll you go, anybody that has issues is jealous that they haven't allowed these pleasures for themselves. Just because we are moms doesn't mean we aren't people so GO HAVE FUN...I know you well and you are a better wife and mom because of it...Drink one for me and as soon as Spencer is here I will make the trek with ya...a babe in one arm a bottle in the other ;-) Dev
I'm on your side, everyone needs some time for themselves. Go, enjoy!
