You should definitely get a prenatal massage and spend some time relaxing on the couch watching trash TV- take advantage of the things that pregnancy keeps you from doing (a good excuse to do the things you might normally feel bad about). Enjoy :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03762446316749653121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326010555125554881.post-90939984854009841462011-03-24T00:43:25.639-07:002011-03-24T00:43:25.639-07:00I know exactly how you feel!

I went away a few months ago, thinking it would be great to have a break from everyone, and one of the first things I did was notice some art in the airport that I thought the kids would think was cool. And then I felt bad because they weren't there. It's such a no win situation. I just hope you can hit your stride and find some fun stuff to do that gives you a good rest. You deserve it. Wish I could drive over the hill and hang with you.:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18427562250034222584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326010555125554881.post-89669357297324325622011-03-23T21:36:34.367-07:002011-03-23T21:36:34.367-07:00Hope you are feeling a little better.

Luckily, I have a really good friend here who took pity on me and had me over for dinner. I actually enjoyed hanging out and playing board games with her kids. Makes me wonder what I'll be like when my son goes to college. Probably a wreck. <br /><br />They'll be home before you know it. Try looking on the bright side, missing someone gives you a chance to realize just how much they mean to you.VM Sehy Photographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03832671940615894037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326010555125554881.post-28156456934620759372011-03-23T08:34:26.591-07:002011-03-23T08:34:26.591-07:00Aw, I know what you mean about being so far from f...Aw, I know what you mean about being so far from friends and family. I'm always missing out on stuff, and I also have ridiculously few friends here in CA (it doesn't help that we're moving in a few months anyway). Think about this, though- you can go to the movies, order the candy and popcorn you want and not have to split it, watch a movie without compromise, and not worry about taking along a diaper bag or bringing someone to the bathroom in the middle of the movie! When Hubby was deployed and I was a newbie to Hawaii while pregnant, I shopped. A LOT. Didn't buy much, but I loved getting out and enjoying my last few weeks of alone time. I hope you get to enjoy this week, whatever you end up doing! :)NHGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08972411762984654505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326010555125554881.post-35213461396659439282011-03-23T05:40:21.031-07:002011-03-23T05:40:21.031-07:00I can understand the emotion, especially since you...I can understand the emotion, especially since you're pregnant. However, just remind yourself of all the late nights, no sleep, barely time for a shower days to come and you will probably snap into pamper yourself NOW while you can mode. Get the mani/pedi, eat what you want, watch what none of the rest of the family ever wants to watch, and call a few friends to meet out somewhere. It will feel great and you'll be glad you did!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326010555125554881.post-78169881897419746222011-03-23T01:12:01.828-07:002011-03-23T01:12:01.828-07:00I'd be painting and crafting with little to no...I'd be painting and crafting with little to no attention to diet or hygiene....probably best to get out of the house for a bit! A massage would be lovely...but it can make you more weepy afterward (I was a massage therapist for 6 years after waiting tables). The kids will be be fine...they'll be so excited to see you and tell you their adventures! Maybe go out and pick up little somethings for them...always cheers me up when I'm missing my girl :)<br /><br />Hang in there!Cameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14435728791853628468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326010555125554881.post-26503496462154825312011-03-22T23:27:57.323-07:002011-03-22T23:27:57.323-07:00I know how this feels - I made a similar decision ...I know how this feels - I made a similar decision last year out of exhaustion.

Hosted a bachelorette party there for my best friend from college who now lives in Denver (: You should go see tons of movies -- it's fun even if you are by yourself. Read lots of books! And definitely do a massage, pedi and mani. Treat yourself to brunch and the paper. There is so much to do and so little time (: And your pets will keep you warm at night. It's not so bad.The Meditz Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02880944815169478797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326010555125554881.post-66695700638377075352011-03-22T21:18:30.062-07:002011-03-22T21:18:30.062-07:00Even though I did laugh about your hubs needing to...Even though I did laugh about your hubs needing to deal w/ airsick kiddos, I hear you on the crying. I would cry, too. My older girl is going for her first overnight field trip tomorrow and I'm feeling a little weepy. If my man weren't chaperoning the trip, I would be in your house with an assortment of chickflix and edible goodies…and I'd be hanging wid you :) Hoping you get a little enjoyment while they're away.
