Parenting after 35

My FFFC (first ever, actually)

I don't ever do these because I would want to "take it back" as soon as I hit post, but this one isn't too bad....

I went shopping last week and spent the majority of the day by myself and, man, I want to do it again. I usually don't LOVE shopping, but I did love being by myself buying Sydney Christmas gifts. I wish I could go again this weekend. ALL DAY. BY MYSELF.

  • That is awesome - it is good to be away from everyone for a day and relax, whether that is shopping or staying home.  You deserve the break! 

    FWIW - next Thursday, S's daycare is open and I'm off so I'm going to take myself to the movies and watch the lastest episode of Harry Potter.  All by myself - I am so excited!

    I know  - I am such a nerd.  I am one of those that would pay to watch all of the movies back to back in the theater.  My SO gets a kick out of it.  Make sure you escape again soon!

  • Yes

    You NEED time by yourself every once in a while!

  • Just reading that gave me a shiver, that is how awesome that sounds.  Oh MAN.

  • That is awesome and not remotely flameful.
  • I would LOVE to go shopping all day by myself, even if I didn?t buy anything. I haven?t had a chance to do that since LO was born and I need it bad.
    Me: 44 DH: 42. DS born healthy at 40 weeks 8/24/09. TTC since then with no luck or ART. Surprise BFP 8/6/14... MMC @ 8 weeks 4 days... Miss you everyday sweet baby angel.
  • Last month, after I got my hair done (DH is good with letting me go out alone and taking care of A) I window shopped at a couple of stores. It was nice. I almost just drove around for an hour to be COMPLETELY alone.

    I tell DH all the time that my dream present would be a spa day at a resort and room service and NO baby.  While I adore him, it would be nice.
