Even a supermom needs a break...

Okay so I really don't consider myself a supermom, but it is catchy. For a while now I have been trying to keep an identity. First I am a mom and a wife, but occasionally I need to think of myself and my sanity and take time away from the family just to catch my breath. So weekly a friend and I pick a day to meet up for a drink and decompress from the week. Lately, I have been getting a lot of flack for it. I don't think it is such a bad thing to want to be able to be my own person for just a couple of hours. I spend most of my days carting people back and forth to their designated destinations and the other part of the day working so why not relax for an hour or two in the company of a couple of good friends. I think that my mental state would be worse off if I didn't get a chance to get away every once in a while just to clear my head and get back to a good starting point for the up and coming activities that will befall in the next week. Well now that I got that off my chest.... Being a supermom is hard work!!!
