Touched Out.

How many of us feel like we need a break? I don't mean a nap or a trip to the grocery store alone. Although those things help...I mean a real break. A good amount of hours without someone needing us or screaming for us. I love being the mother of my boys, but sometimes this mommy needs a minute or an entire day to hear myself think. 

Even sometimes when I try to post on here I find it difficult to collect my thoughts. You know in the mist of finding our own place and all we are still yet to sit down and create a budget outline for ourselves? Sometimes we even have to put off conversations because the boys just wont let us think straight. 

Feeling touched out doesnt happen often, but when it does I just hope for someone to rescue me. Someone to lend a hand before I break. In those moments I want time alone with my honey the most. We don't get date night often. Our lives are mostly working and the boys. With no family around to "help" us we don't get out much. 

We have this rule though, every night after the boys have gone to bed and whoever was at work gets home we spend at least 1 hour together. Its like date night every night and it makes up for not being able to have a night to ourselves or a weekend for us. 

Last week we planned a quick date and it fell apart. We were disappointed, but we just laughed. We don't ask for much. Just one night a month and we don't even get that. Meanwhile, everyone else our age with kids gets out once every week. 

If you cant make date night happen often what do you do to make up for it?
