GTKY Poll: A day to yourself

Fianschneid · April 2013

Imagine for a moment your SO tells you s/he is taking LO for the day. You can do whatever you want. Your house is already clean (no, really, no dishes, laundry, bathrooms to clean).

What do you do with your surprise day off?

Fianschneid · April 2013

First of all, I'm going back to bed. When I wake up of my own accord, I go for a run. Then, I take the worlds longest, hottest shower. Afterwards, I take myself to lunch at a local caf? and then go for a much needed mani/pedi (I haven't had one in over a

EastCoastBride · April 2013

Relax. Catch up on some TV that I'm behind on. Try to meet a friend for lunch, and then if I need to do any shopping (fun shopping, that is), that too.

ferris0906 · April 2013

First off, I would feel overwhelmed by just how awesome that sounds. Could this ever really happen?

Hmmm...like EastCoast, I have sooo many hours of TV to catch up on, I would go have a nice lunch at a non-kid-friendly restaurant, an

SoDoMojo · April 2013

DH made me go out on my own a few months ago. I told him to deal with the kid while I cleaned the house and he basically said "you can have alone time and not spend it cleaning..."

I went to the mall. Got fitted and bought 2 super cute bras

Sonadora · April 2013

I'm already awake, so that sucks

I'd make myself a big cup of hot tea, and lounge on the couch in my pjs and catch up email and such.

Then I'd take a long hot shower.

Make myself something awful for me for lunch.

Go g

Play video games. Treat myself to lunch. Watch trash TV if it is a weekday (MAURY! MAURY!). Do some stitching. Maybe back to video games.

mben1119 · April 2013

I'd go crazy, honestly. I'd watch some TV (I'm watching West Wing right now), cook myself a nice meal, then go for a jog.

Sunidaze · April 2013

Working with the assumption that it is a beautiful day and money is not an issue (for part two). That being the case...maybe start with a run in the park (apparently now that I've run outside a few times, it is quite difficult for me to run inside)

Sprite2012 · April 2013

Take a nap. Take a bubble bath. Read. Watch Sex & the City episodes.

legalbeagle1 · April 2013

What a great GTKY!

My favorite spin class followed by a barre class. Amazing shower where I shave AND pluck my eyebrows and blowdry my hair afterwards. Walk to soba noodle place for lunch. Then a nap. Then a pedicure whe

Smudges*Mom · April 2013

I did this in October while my parents were staying with LO and me. I had nearly 24 hours to myself. It was divine, but not long enough. I'm hoping to get at least 24, if not 48 hours to myself once DH is home (from deploymen

caladpi02 · April 2013

Spend the day at a spa getting treatments, in the pool, doing yoga, etc. I would cap it off with a wine pairing dinner.

Chapter79 · April 2013

I'm sorta spoiled with a grade schooler, so I kinda have this daily. I'm a SAHM, so once 7:45 hits.. I have a kiddo in school, and a husband at work.

For pretending sake I would grab my kindle, probably read for a good hour. Then

jessilynnwilliams · April 2013

I too would spend some quality time with my pillow and blanket!

Then I'd bust out my sewing machine and get some of those projects I've been wanting to get done.

Lunch with a friend and getting my hair doe would also be on the agenda.

eyenigh · April 2013

Man, I would just want to do nothing. Stay in bed, read, don't bug me! If it was a nice day, a long bike ride would be nice but definitely nothing that requires running errands in a car!

happy_un-bride · April 2013

Hrm.... I'm still new at this, so I'm not sure about all the "me" things I'm missing....

number one would be to sleep for 8 hours uninterrupted.

go to spa for spa and pedi

have lunch on a patio with drinks

curl up on

salt78 · April 2013

Oh wow that would be SO NICE! I would go to a yoga class. Get a mani/pedi. Take myself out for a nice lunch and then go to the art museum or down to the harbor to shop and walk around outside now that it's nicer.

firewife9278 · April 2013

I will assume that this means that I have miraculously also gotten some extra vacation days from work

I would sleep in until at least 8, drink some good coffee on the couch in my pjs, while watching some things I have on the DVR. I would pro

superaunt · April 2013

sleep & watch anything *i* want on TV

ChaiMomma · April 2013

I would go to Starbucks and read a book for a couple of hours while drinking a huge cup of delicious coffee. Then I would go get a pedicure, have lunch at a place I couldn't take the LO (like sushi or the fancy Mexican place that doesn't have high c

grrl79 · April 2013

I would also factor in that money was not an issue - and I would get a DELUXE mani/pedi (what that entails I don't know, but I always get a basic) at the Spa - not the nail place I usually go to.

Then I would go shopping - it'

luckymrs718 · April 2013

Hmmm... first I would sleep in an extra hour then head off to the gym for a good long workout. Squeeze in a relaxing massage and pedi, maybe even a haircut if I'm feeling adventurous

meet some friends for lunch at a non-kid-friendly restaur
