i know how it goes though because the only way to get time to yourself is to leave the house and do something and sometimes i just want to be home and not be bothered or followed around the house (or even hear what’s going on)!

I need a break from the whining too! :) I must admit that it sort of comforts me that someone else has a whiney kid...hehe.

I too would like to take a "sick" day once in a while too, but only when I'm not really sick since hubby does a great job taking over on those days. After taking on all last week solo, a day off sounds great! Thankfully my hubby is usually pretty good with sharing the load when he's home! I feel for ya!
