Losing it

Note to self. When I am on the verge of losing my patience, and I know when I am on the verge, I should find a hiding spot. Even if it is deep within me; an invisible wall put in place so that the last straw doesn't penetrate my fragile balance... Mostly, I should be sure not to be in a public place where, after I melt into an adult tantrum, I might turn around and come face to face with Claire's preschool teacher. Just saying... I often make note of the fact that my children seem to use up much of their good behavior in public and save the worst of their moments for me. It seems that the same can be said of me. 8(
