As moms we have very little time to ourselves. Am I right? I mean we can't pee alone let alone sneak off to, gasp, the grocery store without a little helper. Long gone are the days of free time. I don't even know what that means anymore.
I used to hate alone time, pre-kids. I would actually sit in my apartment and cry a lot because I just didn't want to be alone. On weekends I would retreat to my parents, Chanel in tow, and stay just to have some company. Pathetic and sad, I know. Gosh what I would do for some of that alone time now.
I got to thinking what I might do if I had a full 24 hours to do whatever I wanted...a girl can dream, right? Obviously funds would be unlimited because duh.
