is there a time when you just want to get away from everything?

As my children get older and more defiant i feel this way more often then i used to. There are many days where is wish i could go somewhere by myself all alone for a day and night i think when i would return the next day i would be ready for anything. I would definitly have to go some where with a hot tub. I have only ever been in one once, it was the most relaxing feeling i had ever had and that night i was out like a light until late morning the next day.

When I start to feel that way I usually end up getting the flu or a cold, maybe it's a way for my body to get the break that I need. Alot of the time, I am so busy in life that I don't know if I am coming or going. When you feel like that you can still take a mini break. Even if it is just soaking in the tub or going for a walk. I try to do this often, even when I'm busy, it helps to keep me sane and refreshes me.

Yes, I am feeling that way with work. I started a new job in Jan and I work with 5 other ladies and they are just so rude. I get so stressed, I keep telling myself I need to look for another job. I have never had people rude to me like here. But then again, I keep telling myself to give it time. I hope you can get some stress relief for yourself. maybe this weekend with the holiday. I know I can't wait until 4 today and I am outta here for 3 days. Yippee...

I totally feel that way. Between work and my personal/marriage problems I would love to just take off. What stops me from doing this? My daughters. I will always be there for them so this solution will never really work for me. cheers,

Yes!!!! Right now!!!!! I have a stinking throat chest and ear infection, my daughter is also poorly. my brother has just been in hospital and I just got dumped by some ***hole who told me he finished with me because he assumed I was seeing someone else which he knows is not true it was just easier for him to finish with me and if his blatant lies make him feel better ten I hope they catch up with him and bite him really hard on the bottom! Take me away to an island with no worries, pleeeeease!!!!!!! lol

i find golf relaxing. I dunno why but it relaxes me. this is the main reason i play golf. i tried beach time or going to the spa but none have a lasting effect. golf on the other hand, take a few hours to complete. then come home to the family all recharged with good calming mojo. ; )

I feel that way quite often. I imagine most everyone likes to get away from it all from time to time.
