I never know what to do with myself when I get a few hours at home alone. I like cleaning when no one is here, but that’s not exactly fun. My online groups, Facebook, etc. is my after-everyone’s-in-bed treat, so it seems silly to do that while I’m by myself. Napping sounds good, but my kids are old enough that it’s not like a catnap’s impossible when they ARE here.
I’d read, but that would probably result in a nap. And I need to go shopping, but why do that when I can do it later and essentially double mama’s time alone? 😆
Am I the only mom who struggles to know what to do with herself when she’s alone?
Ahhh…time alone! It sounds dreamy, but then when I have time alone I usually end up doing dishes, laundry, etc., simply because it *screams* at me if I try doing anything else…which makes it incredibly difficult to take a nap. 😉 (That’s something my husband CANNOT understand!) By the time it all quits screaming at me and I can sit down to relax and read, the whole crew usually shows up again…sigh. No, you are not alone. 🙂
