In 7 1/2 years, I have not left my kids and husband alone! I have spent a few nights away with my husband(usually a few miles from my parents, where the kids were)and the kids and I have traveled without Ben, but in 7 1/2 years, I have not been away alone! I think that is about to change!
I have a friend that will be about 3 hours away from me next week and I think I am going to take a little ride to visit and spend the night! It will not be much, I will get the monsters off to school in the morning and then have the sitter get them after school until Ben gets home, then Ben will see them off to school the next morning and I will be back to pick them up! It will only be about 24 hours, but I think I should do it! I want to do it! It will be fun!
Ben says he is okay with it as long as I have a plan for the kids, but I know there will be hell to pay for this little trip when I get back! I think that I okay though, I am going to do it anyway. And I really do need to do this for all of us! Ben and the kids need to see that I do have a life and I need to give myself a little break and trust that life can go on without me.
I hope that next week will come and I will be reporting about a wonderful 24 hours with an old friend!
