Where'd my relaxing day go?

My friend Kathleen and I escaped on Wednesday. We ran away from it all, left the kids with the daddies and left. We went for Pedicures! Eric had gotten me a gift card for this place here in town, the em studio salon which was FABULOUS! Kathleen and I were in our own cozy nook getting our tootsies done. It was quite nice, and NO TODDLERS yelling "MommyMommyMommyMommyMommy...."!



After our tootsie pampering, I decided that it was time to get a haircut.
Before:



I donated about 7 inches to Locks of Love! Woo hoo, now I can feel the summer breeze on the back of my neck. Ahh....
After:



From there we went and had quick drinks at Starbucks. However, Eric had spent at least an hour bouncing Sam, and Kathleen was too preggers to stay out too late, so the fun didn't last long. When I got home, Eric was tired, his huddled masses were yearning to breathe free. He went pretty much straight to bed, and Sam didn't want to sleep. I was relaxed I didn't mind.

Now 2 days later, I'm feeling more stressed. The kids are griping, and it's exhausting. Where did all my happiness and relaxation go? I need to get away again. Today it's not an option.
