Ok...so not that I actually have a "happy place" or anything, but I am even a worry-wart mama in my day dreams. We are toying with the idea of driving out to Disney Land and driving on Route 66 for part of the way. (Thank you, Lightning McQueen!) Not that this will happen, but it's a big maybe?? So I sat there last night, day-dreaming (how about that one, huh??...last NIGHT...DAY dreaming?? Yeah..ok. Too much wine tonight??? Easily amused. I can see that!) about being in California, and of palm trees, and beaches. Ahhh...just laying on the beach, or in the water on a floatie relaxing. BUT, I seriously didn't get too far into that day dream before I was worrying about finding hotels to sleep at along the way to make sure nobody fell asleep at the wheel or anything. But more than that... I couldn't lay on my stinking raft without worrying about the boys! Are they wearing sunblock? Do they have their life jackets on? If I am relaxing on a raft, who would be watching them? Would they be on a raft right next to me, and if so, is the water over their heads? And if they are right next to me...I can't relax because I need to watch them! If they aren't right next to me, are they with daddy, grandma.... and if they went anywhere fun while I was floating on my raft, are they safe?? Did they drive, did they get strapped safely into car seats when they left. If jake and I went somewhere alone in my daydream, did we fly (Did we go to Hawaii?? :)? Are the kids fighting with eachother back at Grandpa- Grandma's house? Oh man, then there's the flight home.... or the drive home. Did they go to Mc.Donalds playland for fun one night? IF they did, I hope they are careful and that they don't fall. I don't want them to break a bone or get seriously injured while I am floating on my damn raft.
That's it. Enough of this raft. No more happy place. It's more stressful than being in reality! Atleast in reality, I can see them and know they are snuggled up in their beds and that they are safe... and that I am not on a raft in a pool or on a beach. Sigh.
Hahaha. (And this was just the daydream... what would it really be like?)
I want some meds too!
