starting over

my last thread was misunderstood and hijacked, so I'm going to get right to the point.

How do you unwind at the end of a stressful day?

With so much going on, where do you look for comfort and peace?

What brings you joy and helps you to clear your head so you can think straight?

I used to take a long hot bubble bath with a good book and a glass of win eor a beer haha Man I miss that!!

Now I just give myself a pedicure and listen to music after the kids are in bed.

my cat oreo is the only one in the world who can get me out of a funk....i get to this point where im just so upset and frustrated NOTHING makes me happy im just stubborn like that but then my cat will come up to me and meow at me like "hey whats wrong mommy?" its soo cute so he makes me happy no matter what situation im in. and he can always tell too cuz hes ALWAYS there for me. I love him...you should get a cat. they are so intuitive

bob marley always calms me down.

Food, a nice bubble bath, read a good book (good way to escape reality for a bit lol)

I HAD a cat......but it was SO stressful because the litter box was in the bathroom and my son was potty training.....he thought it was a sandbox!  

No more cats until the kids are bigger!

sex...lol It always makes me feel better.

hahahahah oh my!! thats hilarious!! what did he think the poops were? mud camoflauged army men?? hahahha thats cute tho. thats too funny....im gonna have to tell mike about that one hahaha

Play with your kids..
finger paint with them
find out what they love to do..

give them a bath..
hug them and kiss them

you obviously cant find too much time to yourself so when they go to bed just take a bath..
or read a good book..

honestly veronica.
I think you need to take a day and just focus on what your going to do in your life.
None of us will be able to "physically" help you..
we've all said what options we think you have..

I seriously hope everything works out for you.
you seem like you really are at a rock and a hard spot..

well, I had scoop away, so, no worries, there was never poop or pee in it for more than a few minutes, not one clump! But, my son would pour water into the litter box, then scoop up the mud and poor it on the floor   I liked it better when he couldn't open doors!!!!   ....lol...

I do appreciate the suggestions.
I know what my kids love to do....they love to play "drive mommy crazy"...lol, j/k
that's my 2 year olds favorite thing!...my 7 year old likes to read to me and the baby likes to pull my hair   when he's climbing all over me like I'm a jungle gym....
the 2 year old also likes to use the phone....without asking!!
