[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To be honest, a girls weekend away is not that appealing to me at this point in my life.  I have 3 year old twins and a 2 year old.  I spent my 20’s and early 30’s doing lots of girl weekends.  Then I had children and priorities changed.   What appeals to me is meeting a couple friends for dinner or doing a pedicure together then lunch. But actually leaving town?  Nope.[/quote]

I just don't get this.  I have a group of four college girlfriends and we do weekends away 3-4 times a year.  My best friend and I usually do weekends together with our kids, but once a year we'll do something with just us.  My husband and I also enjoy getting away for a weekend trip.  Oh, and for Mother's Day I asked for two nights at a resort so I could sleep in and go to the spa.  I work, so I'm not home with my kids every day.  I believe in spending quality time with them, and I make a big effort to be there for preschool activities and do a lot of fun things with them, but I am not only a mom.  I am also a woman, a wife, and a friend, and I spend time cultivating all of those things.[/quote]

See, you are just lucky and thank your stars for it. Really, most people's life does not fall into such boxes so neatly.[/quote]
