PLEASE BE CAUTIONED: THIS MAY NOT BE GOOD READING MATERIAL FOR THOSE WHO ARE AT THEIR PEAK OF CONTENTMENT, ENJOYMENT OR
HAPPINESS IN THEIR ROLE OF MOTHERHOOD. CONTINUE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
...in these thoughts of running away. Going somewhere, anywhere, that is new, exciting, peaceful, calm,unstressed stressless uh....kid-free!!
A place where I can think (without being interrupted). Where there is comfort, serenity and all around lightness/airiness. You know a place where you can lay back & not feel shut in. Not feel trapped, by four walls, responsibilities, stressors or demands.
A place where you can be real...not what others are expecting you to be/do. Sleeping in until you wake naturally (be it 2 a.m. or 2 p.m.). Eating when & what you want. Not having to fix what you know others like, what they feel the cravings for, what you hope they will eat. Where a pair of shorts and a tee can be worn without people thinking you aren't stylish enough. Where if you want to wear a dress, for the first time in 9 yrs., no one will look at you and ask "Where are you going?" or "Why are you wearing that".
The place where music is what you want to listen to at that moment, where the lights can be off and candles lit without anyone getting any "ideas", where books are plentiful and no one cares if you sit/lay around and read all day.
A coffee can be had whenever you feel the need for that flavor, without having to worry about being awake all night....'cause you don't need to worry about responsibilities hittin' you in the face @ 6 a.m. when your caffeine kept you up 'til 4a.m.!!
OH, I HEAR YA....YOU WANTED TO BE A MOTHER!! YOU WANTED TO BE A WIFE!! YOU CHOSE TO HAVE A HUSBAND AND CHILDREN....NO ONE FORCED YOU TO!
TRUE.....
Lets just say, some things don't ALWAYS turn out to be what you dreamed they'd be. Some things/husbands/children are not perfect...as I am not perfect. THAT my dear readers is what brings me to this place.
Not that I don't want to be a wife and mom and do the things I do for my family (okay, I would've given up fixing and trying to get my kids to eat, like 5 years ago!!). Realistically, I would never give it up...well, maybe for aweek month how long do sabbaticals usually last?
I'm pretty sure that these feelings of taking off for the unknown will pass, as it has before. Probably when school starts up again & I don't have to be on the receiving end of whiney kids 24/7!!
How bout you? Instead of a "fun family vacation" would you like to take a solo leave of absence?
