(They live so close that we see them a couple times a week) I have some work to finish up but that won't take long. Sooooo, now that I finally have time for myself, what do I do? LOL! rolling_smile.gif I fogret what it is like to have time to myself.

mummy2girls replied: I know what u mean! Whenever i get a couple hours to myself i just dont know what to do...all i see myself is thinking about jenna. And staring at her toys thinking there should be a child here...LOL. take a nice bubble bath, read a book, ENJOY ENJOY ENJOY!!!!

Maddie&EthansMom replied: Do you ever find yourself saying "If I had the time...." or "If I were alone...." ? If I ever catch myself thinking those things I write it down so I will know what I want to do when I am alone. It is hard to get used to the quiet when you are alone. It is sad when no one is there. But, it feels good to do something for yourself sometimes, too. Rest, read, take a bubble bath, watch a good movie, go through old pictures....I could go on and on. Can you tell I'm not alone too often? TeeHee! rolling_smile.gif

Kirstenmumof3 replied: That's great that you get some time to yourself! I think you should take a nice long hot bubble bath, light some scented candles and have a glass of wine! Enjoy your night! wink.gif

aspenblue1 replied: I wouldn't know what to do with myself if I was home alone. I hope you enjoyed your night.

Kaitlin'smom replied: wow I would love to be home alone again even for a few hours......so what did you do?

DansMom replied: If it were me, I'd make a nice cup of tea or coffee, and either read a good book or do a crossword puzzle. Sounds like heaven!

coasterqueen replied: Don't know what it's like to have a few hours alone, lol. Sooooo what did you end up doing?

MomToMany replied: rolling_smile.gif LOL, I can't remember when I had some time to myself! There's alaways something that I have to get done. Hope you enjoyed your "you" time wink.gif !

jem0622 replied: My list is in this order:

(1) If I desperately need a haircut, then run out and get one
(2) Grocery shopping? So much easier with no kids
(3) Manicure/pedicure (had one lately?)
(4) Clean (can you tell I hate cleaning?)
(5) Watch a show (not a big TV person)
