What you wrote is almost exactly how I feel most days. My husband works a regular job and he works side jobs on his day off to provide for us (or works on project here at the house) and I'm proud of him, but in the inside I am always thinking 'what about me' and it feels so selfish!! Oh man I'm crying just writing this. Sometimes I just wish we could spend more time together and sometimes I just want a moment alone, with out feeling guilty about it. With four little kids that need me, a daycare to run, a house to clean and a husband that is hardly ever home...it just all get overwhelming. So I guess in my rambling way I'm just trying to tell you I relate so much to your feelings as I feel so often the same way, thanks for sharing. Sometimes it feels good to know you are not alone.Riahlihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08525310321786184469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3877919115032018087.post-39448440237863502462010-06-29T16:35:54.707-04:002010-06-29T16:35:54.707-04:00You are def. not alone!

We all need a break and we all need to nurture relationships other than with our children. I sometimes have the same feelings but when I am away from Andrew, I miss him like crazy!!Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16983979877729749042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3877919115032018087.post-65346581222186196022010-06-29T13:59:32.584-04:002010-06-29T13:59:32.584-04:00You sound needy like me!

I think it's hard when they're always away from us and then there's the whole Mommy needs some "me" time thing too. It's hard, but you'll get through it.The Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10453909200424907737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3877919115032018087.post-68601783079755882382010-06-29T09:25:38.559-04:002010-06-29T09:25:38.559-04:00Lisa, girrrrrl, everytime I visit you we seem to b...Lisa, girrrrrl, everytime I visit you we seem to be going through similar matters of life. My hubby has been working a lot of overtime and although the money is much needed, I miss him! I had a pity party this weekend, but no one showed up. LOL <br />We're women traveling a challenging journey and I actually speak of this in the book God blessed me to write. Women go through so many emotions, yet we don't share the valley moments, which makes us feel we're alone in our emotions. <br />Thank you for sharing yourself and PLEASE know, you are not alone and you are definitely not a baby. Little Man is the ONLY baby in your house (smile).<br />Have a JOYFUL holiday weekend!MOMSWEBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03425350066254996873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3877919115032018087.post-16030099670857862902010-06-29T02:07:58.312-04:002010-06-29T02:07:58.312-04:00No. You are not being a big baby. I could have w...No. You are not being a big baby. I could have written your post mostly. I am so there with you right now. there is so much going on in my life with my sister and now I am watching baby Jacob 12 hours a day (who may become ours if things don't turn around for his Mom...shhh) and I have Blaze who I love with my whole heart and soul but sometimes i want peace. I want to get my nails done or read a book or sew something pretty or do nothing or take a nap. But like you I am being followed 24/7 and Chris and I hardly ever have time together and I try to explain to him and he doesn't get it. He leaves for work at 7:30 am and gets home around 5:30 pm then has to feed the horses and water them so he doesn't get in the house until 7 or so and I am so frazzled by that time and trying to cook with Blaze running under my feet and the dog needs to pee and the cats haven't been fed yet and the laundry just finished and I need to load the dishwasher. Man it never ends and he says....but you don't have to go to work. Man, I think an 8 hr job woul dbe a break sometimes haha. I have just started telling Chris I need me time and we need us time so I think you should just tell your hubby, hey instead of finishing the ceiling today can we just go for a walk? I am sure he would say yes.Shana Putnamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06358368506091648893noreply@blogger.com
