I tell you I always feel so selfish when I want to just take off, I seriously have been just leaving here and there to drive or sit somewhere for a couple of hours. This has no purpose, no reasoning, nothing behind it. I simply need to remove myself from the house and be alone. My husband has the option to do this on nights too, I have told him he obviously can get away too, the problem is apparently I am the only one who wants to be out of the house ALONE. My husband would prefer to go outside of the house with me.
Do you ever feel:
- smothered?
- overtired?
- over worked?
- so exhausted you can barely think straight?
- depressed and not exactly sure why?
Well that’s been me lately, which is why it’s been hard to keep up here on my blog with as many productive posts. You see I am a detail orientated person so when life gets to me, my blog takes a hit. I definitely try to focus on the positive but it’s hard to write, almost like I get writers cramp.
I have been suffering from writers cramp for a while now, still working out the situation I was referring to the other day, did you miss that? You can read all about the tough decision I have to make or act on anyways by clicking here. I am hoping within the next few days I will have had enough time to be away on my own or with my children one on one to move forward in a happy, positive way so for now, don’t mind me if I am not as chipper as usual, even I get down sometimes and find it hard to focus to pick myself back up!
Make it a Happy Day!

I have been where you are MANY times. I think that there is always something that happens on a daily basis that makes me feel overworked, exhausted, smothered (all of the above).
The best decision though, that I have made lately concerning “Me Time” is that I plan it. I have made the tough choice to no longer work or be on the computer at night. I shut everything down once I put the kids to bed (around 7:30pm) and I spend an hour watching TV or reading before I go to bed myself. I have missed out on a lot of the fun MomTV shows and Twitter parties and things like that, but I find that I am more productive the following day when I have that down time the night before.
Everyone will have something different, because my schedule may not be what works for you or anyone else, but my point is, that planning some down time can really be key and will help you to feel more in control. Hopefully your husband will eventually understand that. I guess it is hard for guys. They are so different. Probably because they are not the ones DOING IT ALL. LOL
Well, anyway, I hope that you are able to make more time for YOU – because you definitely deserve it.

You have to take time to refresh yourself in order to be the best and do your best. I admire you for taking the opp to get away and do that.
