Have an opportunity to do a weekend in LA on my own, DH very supportive of the idea. Wd be visiting an old work colleague. Have never left my 2 children overnight, so feel quite odd at being such a long way away.
DH travels a lot, the kids are fine when he's away, but people I've told seem to be a bit surprised at the idea of me going away on my own. I feel a bit irritated - why is me going for a break to maintain a long term friendship any less valid (or rather, any worse for the children) than DH going away for a fortnight on business? They are 3 and 1, please come and reassure me that I am not being completely selfish!
