Ever had one of those times in your life where you can't seem to do anything right to please the people in your life? I am in one of those funks!! I feel like nothing I do is making anyone happy :(
What is a girl, mom, wife to do? I think a girls trip out of town for a long weekend is the cure to what ails me!
My good friend and I went on a girls trip to Navarre, FL in March and I must say it was one of the best times I have had..period. We went to bed when WE wanted, got up when WE wanted, did what WE wanted, ate what WE wanted, drank what WE wanted. I think that about covers it. I think all women/mothers should have at least 2-3 weekends a year where we can go somewhere away from the perils of our daily routines. I know I was away in March, but with 2 teenagers I think I am about due for another. I think those of us with teenagers should be given a pass to a place with women only, doing all the things that WE like at least every other month! The only men allowed would be the ones serving us our drinks at the local pub, that's it, no exceptions! No one under the age of 30 is allowed either!
I've only ever done a girls' getaway once - an overnight in Nashville about three years ago with a couple of high school friends. It was fun! I know several people who do one every single year, planned well in advance so they have it to look forward to.
