2 hours alone

Last week I had a meltdown and realized that part of the reason was that I hadn't been alone in my house since DS was born.  I take DS with me, leaving DH in an empty house at least once a week, but DH as never taken DS out by himself.  Well as a result of last week's meltdown, DH took him out today and I had the house to myself for two whole hours.  I took a bath, read and tried to nap.  While I didn't sleep, I lay in the dark and the quiet and turned my ears off for the first time in 7 months.  It was delicious.  I told DH I need this on a regular basis and he agreed, yay!

    My husband is on a health kick so every night he takes DD for a walk. Half an hour a day can help SO much!

    yes, it is delicious.  With 2 little ones now, it is even more rare for me to be on my own at home.  I actually had my own 2 hours of heaven - I was called for jury duty today, it wrapped up early and I didn't have to go into work.  I napped in the perfectly quiet house.  It was wonderful!!!
