I have had a crappy few months my girls have been sick (passing colds back and forth) Dog has developed a chewing habit for the kids things! And well Im just sick of this cold weather! I just need to know I'm not the only one out there ready to run away to a beach where no one can find me!? Because if I wipe one more snotty nose I will truly lose my mind!!!

Yep I am right there with ya.....have been dealing with 3 puking, pooping, snotting machines for at least the last month. One gets over it and another has it within 24 hours. I have NEVER done sooo much shampooing of my carpets.
And the cold is definatley getting to me....I can't stand it!

LOL!! My kids arn't sick, but we are in the middle of moving. One house gone, one not ready yet. Oh, I'm remembering the days a few weeks ago when everyone was sick, but we had beds, and a shower! At least I know it is getting better, but so will yours. Hang in there! Oh, and for the dog, get some "bitter apple" spray from your local pet store, it will keep him from chewing things! And as a bonus, the kids won't stick the treated stuff in their mouths either(it non-toxic), and maybe that will break the cold cycle.

I just went through this last month and heck even into this month. Hang in there momma! Once summer hit's and the humidity is back in the air that will help dry everything out.
It's hard I know. There are many days when I'm just at my wit's end and think I can't take anymore and then something let's up. Take a break tonight and leave your spouse or partner with the kids. Even if it's just to walk around Walmart or something. You'll feel much more refreshed and able to deal with tomorrow. Hang in there!! :)

I know the feeling well. I have had it. Luckily it's warming up quite a bit here in Colorado, hitting 70 several times this week. Normally March is our snowiest month, but this year things have been different. It's starting to feel like it's not going to snow any more this year. Just give the kids some vitamin C and give the dog his own toys, and wait patiently. It's almost over. I sprayed so much lysol this year I should have bought stock in the company, lol.

Well, I understand your frustration, but hang on, things will get better. I just have one daughter, and I think if I ran away to a beach somewhere I would be lonely, homesick, and wondering if anyone was taking care of her snotty nose....my guess is that you would be, too. Give yourself a big pat on the back just for being a great mom!

We have not had any cold weather latley we have just had lots of rain and it is going to drive me crazy we cant go out and play and that is all my daughter wants to do (like she dont have toys inside). we already have 80 degree weather down here. but we did just get over the snotty nose coughing stuff so mabey your time of wiping noses will be over soon. Good luck and think the cold weather will be over soon.

I TOTALLY understand. The other night, I had 3 babies. My 2 1/2 month old daughter, my 4 1/2 year old son (he had an accident and had to get stiches) and my husband (who had just had his vasectomy done). I was ready to lose my freakin mind! One or all of them needed me for something all day and all night long!
It would be SOOOOOOOOO nice to get away, but knowing my luck, I know that I would miss them and want to go back to the craziness!
Hang in there. It does get better. Years down the road from now, you'll look back and remember these times and miss them. (Believe it or not!!)

I completely agree with you. I am in South Carolina and we have been having the craziest weather...It was 80 yesterday and it's much cooler today...So with that comes....sickness! I have a 2 month old baby and I'm SO paranoid about him getting sick. My laundry room is overflowing with dirty clothes, and as soon as I get something clean, my 6 year old destroys it. Oh, and 3 AM feedings for the baby...JEEZ! I could totally see myself on a white sand beach, working on the tan I so desperatley need.....sans kids! If my daughter says "mommy" one more time to me, I quit! *lol*
