When her time is up she'll be in to get you. <br />I went in an hr later....lucky for me, they eventually fell asleep.

I've had a small handful of these 9-5'...YES. I've had a small handful of these 9-5's in 3.5 years and I have my fair share of "sitting in the shower (yes, sitting while the shower is running) and enjoying the hot water because sometimes that's the only peaceful part of my day", or going in my room and shutting the door, sometimes just to stare at the wall alone. And yes, screaming in the pillow. Those 9-5's are SO crucial. Also, it's nice to be your own friend and spend time with yourself :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16695137019481276981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6103221993834960561.post-16538002985385915982016-02-04T14:23:58.215-05:002016-02-04T14:23:58.215-05:00Ugh, I hear ya on the personal days!

I enjoy reading your blog many times I cannot relate as I don't have a family of my own (yes!!!) but I will say that I don't tend to look at motherhood as a JOB b/c its something that you've elected to do - others are not so lucky to have children so easily! This being said ... HELLO everyone needs a "me" day!! You are not the only only one - trust me I'm in the kidless minority and frequently hear others talking about what a rewarding yet, exhausting experience it is!! EVERYONE deserves "me" time .. even mommes. Now, about that bottle of wine we are going to have together!

I think we all need some time to re-charge! Enjoy your time on Saturday & that shower, alone ;)Bree Galehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01886002791710701960noreply@blogger.com
