Thanks Mal...

John and I were able to get away this weekend for some much needed R&R. My fabulous, fantastic, lovely, fun, phenomenal niece, Mal offered to come and stay with the kids so we could get out of town. Is she crazy??? No, she is wonderful!! The kids love her and she doesn't put up with any of Sam's crap! Seriously, what could be better?
We wanted to go for the bed & breakfast thing, but I'm not really into sharing a bathroom with my neighbors, and don't really want to be BFF's with the owners, let alone know their names & vice versa...so, we found a happy medium. I can't remember the last time I was so relaxed. It was a great weekend!
I told John that the "mean Annemarie" would probably return once we got home, and the "nice, relaxed Annemarie" might go into hiding...his response..."It's like my own version of polygamy. I love you both!"


THANKS MAL!!!

That must have been so nice I am at my girls gettaway still isnt it nice to take a break from being mommy for a liitle bit. Sounds like you guys had a great time. We all need to do it more often.

Annemarie - I totally laughed because any vacation we go on Bart prepares for the aftermath which is never pretty! The getaways are just too short! Is Mal Adrianne's daughter? I can't believe it!

Good for you - sometiems a little R&R away from the kids is just what a busy mom needs to keep sane. I think I need a get-away too - and SOON!
