Never before has "me" time held so much value. You know that rare special time after the kids are asleep in bed and the house is quiet I can finally do what I want to do! Read, watch TV, sit uninterrupted at the the computer, eat ice cream, cuddle with husband, do anything I WANT time. It might be sad that this is my favorite time of day and it sounds selfish but we all need it to survive. It always comes and goes too quickly like most enjoyable things but I savor every moment of this "no one needs anything from me" time. Sometimes I can't help but laugh about life before kids, so much "me" time how did I even know what to do with it all. One more thing I can add to the list of things I can thank my kiddos for, helping me appreciate "me" time.
We have been sick all week so "me" time has mostly been spent passed out on the couch. Luckily we all took naps everyday this week, which is unheard of around here. I'm very bummed I was supposed to go visit my sister this weekend and help take care of Evie so she could get stuff done since she has open heart surgery on Tuesday but we were too sick to go. I really wanted to see my sis and help out so I'm feeling sad :(
