Ok let's get real here and a little personal. When it rains it pours. To put it plainly I am blessed and I know that but holy cow my life has been a Hot mess the last couple months. Thank goodness I do have those sweet little boys in my life or I don't think I could get through it all. With moving, my parents moving {I am a little attached to my family}, some other trials that I won't get into details with and the biggest stress of my husband searching for a job out of law school has been, well, heck. It has been rough. It has been stressful. Our boys miss seeing daddy at dinner or at bedtime, and sometimes even all day due to his temporary wacko hours job. Its been hard feeling like a single parent sometimes. I get lonely. And well I need a break.
I think we all need breaks sometimes. Whether it is a mommy time out, a break from your stressful job, your busy schedule, or whatever you have going on. We all need that little time to ourselves and to take care of ourselves. To wash away the worry and just relax.. It can rejuvenate us and get us going again with a little boost.
I feel like I have to do it all {I think most women feel this way} especially during this time of year. With Halloween coming up I am worried the costumes won't get done, I have parties to get ready for and shopping to do. And it just gets overwhelming. I have noticed when things get crazy and the Holidays are approaching I just need some time to breath. Instead of go go going even when the kids are in bed, I need to take part of that time for me. When the boys are napping or down for the night, for at least 10 minutes, I leave the mess, I leave the projects alone, I put the vacuum down and I have that mommy time out.
On my way to check out this PEOPLE magazine caught my eye. What is it about that magazine? Its a classic and ever since high school it is my go to magazine read.
Now you know you want a good PEOPLE magazine read and a side of HERSHEY'S dish candy for your next mommy time out, part of your Halloween decor, for your favorite fall recipe or in between the trick or treaters coming up. Well guess what, we have a special $2 off coupon for the PEOPLE magazine and HERSHEY'S dish candy combination just for you.
Sometimes my mommy time outs are when the hubby is at work, the boys are down for the night, the house is cleanup for the night and I am chillin in my bed with my groovy socks, Hershey's kisses, apple cider and most comfy clothes. It was great to read about the latest styles, TV series, movies coming out, a little Justin Timberlake never hurt anyone, beauty products and I'm sorry but who doesn't just love Meg Ryan and her family centered self. Go get yours today you won't regret it. And those pumpkin kisses were amazing I just may have eaten more than half of the bag in one sitting, just sayin.
