Time out

I think I need a time out from life!

I know that this isn't physically possible but goodness sometimes I think everyone needs a timeout. I would love to say that life is without major stress but the fact of the matter is sometimes I feel that I'm drowning in it. 

The week was looking promising; that was until Wednesday hit...  I had a weekend mommy retreat (aka mental refocus and escape) planned right after the 4th of July and before the deployment but after some discussion it was turned into a mommy day out x2 and family portraits on that Saturday; this was the start of the hopeful week downfall. My dear loving husband decided to tell me that my retreat hurt him, hmm interesting choice of words! There are many words that I can put to that sentence and so many that I wont but lets just say that this made my week spiral. As of today my retreat is up for further research and finalization (just like I were a clerk working for an ever demanding boss, grrr). I wish he could live in my shoes for a week sometimes.

I really need a time out but I know that it isn't going to happen...

To top all this off my toddler, whom I've been actively trying to potty train for the last 2 months has decided that she is just like her younger brother and sister and that she has no desire to tell anyone she needs to potty or even go when asked. After a great day yesterday of going every time that her friend had to go and a decent day today and getting a reward she stood in front of the television watching Cars 2 and went all over the floor (thank god it isn't carpet anymore!).

I really need a time out but instead I just wont give up!
