A little bit of quiet.
I've had a week of emotional crap.
I am exhausted from being the in home sounding board for everyones woes, needs, and worries. Yet it goes with the territory of parenthood.

I've had the gig of parenthood for 32 1/2 years. You cannot be affective parent if you are selfish or stingy.Those people who think they can are truly fooling themselves.
My beautiful, articulate, educated Princesses all had a meltdown (at once). Finally it's quieted down. No one person to blame, merely 3 different personalities. So I vent and it allows me to move on.

Finally my little den is has been almost restored to normal. You see it was used for Christmas central. Overloaded with all things Christmas, presents, paper, boxes,bags, tags,etc.. Now I am down to some lil things. My ability to get to my PC has improved. My dogs and I can once again nap and read on my bed I keep in here.
My husband set this extra bedroom up for me as a Mommy get away. He too has his own Man room to sneak into to relax.
Us girls call it the man cave. He does deserve it though. My husband is quite a busy person and some solo r&r is sometimes necessary. His room is all manly and conservative.
Mine is like an old hippie lives in it(well she does). Art work, statues, quilts, lots of pillows, bright walls, my music & TV. Yep it's totally me.
