Peace and Quiet- A Mom's Dream!

Or maybe it is just my dream!  Every so often my family goes out of town to visit my hubby's family- darn I have to work so I have to stay behind.  This weekend they left me and to be honest I couldn't get them out the door soon enough.  I know a bit mean but I had a migraine and I needed quiet.

Last night was awesome- I sat in pure quiet for hours (no TV, no music-NOTHING) just relaxing and trying to get rid of the headache.  It felt great.  Then at night I was able to watch all my goofy shows that no one likes and NO INTERRUPTIONS.  Usually at night the "Mom Referee" has to emerge to stop the fighting over toys, books, and the TV!  I didn't have to yell (lol) or roll my eyes or send someone to their room for hitting!  It felt good almost like a detox of some sort.

Today I got up and was able to get to work on time with little effort.  Usually I have to fight to get out the door with one kid attached to one leg and the other asking if he can play video games at 7:30 in the morning. I went to work and had a great day.  Then the best part was walking into the house that was CLEAN and I didn't have to hear " Sahara did this....." or "Ronnell called me a ......" it was pure quiet!  Did I say clean house...YES!   The vacuum lines are still showing- I love vacuum lines (I know a bit weird).

Tonight I plan to read my book I bought a couple weeks ago and watch a movie I want to watch- what more could I ask for!!!  Loving my peace and quiet for these 2 days but to be honest that is all about I could handle. I need my hugs, kisses, and loves from my family so I do miss that!  But don't get me wrong you know I'm going to enjoy every minute.
