cabin fever!

crazyblessedmamma · February 2014

Both of my babies are sick with RSV, we have a foot and a half of snow, and in the past 6 days I have only been out of the house to go to the dr and the pharmacy...Ds1 is beginning to go stir crazy and I am right behind him! Day dreaming about what I would do if I were able to leave the house (childless) for a few hours... I'm thinking I would indulge in a "mommy makeover". Hair cut, color, pedi and a new article of clothing(probably a scarf). And since this is hypothetical let's throw in a new shade of tinted lip gloss... anybody else desperate for some alone time??? What would you do with a few childless/DH-less hours??

I am actually getting out of the house tonight to meet up with some of my coworkers for dinner and drinks!

I would die right now for a bath! I mean a full on steaming hot bubble bath with my candles lit and a good mystery/murder book. At least 2 hours uninterrupted. But because of a medical issue at the moment I can't have a bath and GOD knows when I will be able to do anything but shower

I don't drink, but I do love a night out with my girls! Have fun!!! And enjoy getting to eat with two hands! :-)

I am totally there with you. DD#1 is being incredibly difficult because she is sick, miserable and tired of being cooped up. Her potty training has totally backslided (backslid) because she is just bored and can't be bothered to tell me that she needs the potty. She can only wear out so much of her energy running around in our tiny little house. Myself and LO are also sick and my entire right side is still sore from my fall. I have so little energy to chase after and amuse a toddler. I hate winter, I want to be out walking!

Oh I so want a few childless hours or even 5 minutes so I can go to the bathroom in piece (DD#1 thinks its hilarious to flush it when I am on it today). I would definitely go jean shopping my pre-pregnancy jeans are too big and my skinny jeans are too small. I am tired of yoga pants and my work pants are to dressy to wear.

I swear, I could vaccum the whole house and my kids would sleep through it, but If i run a bubble bath for myself they wake from a dead sleep! Mommy problems... :-)

Sorry you and you're kiddos are sick :-( hope that everyone revolvers quickly... DH and I are trying to keep from getting sick, my hands are raw from washing. Hope your mommy break comes soon!

I feel your pain. I was sick, then DS1 was sick and it's been freezing cold out. I'm starting to hate the inside of my house and DS1 is going crazy. And we have another windchill advisory for tomorrow. Winter needs to end.

All I keep saying at least we are not battling RSV like a lot of the LO's on this board. Though I am wondering when it stops just being a regular old cold or something more (she has had this since last Wednesday and no improvement). I seem to be on the mend but now my husband has come down with the dreaded Man-cold.

I would love to get my hair and nails done and get waxed...also attend a Zumba class and take a long shower after!
