Do you ever get the day just for yourself?

Mon-Fri I work and the weekends go so fast between errands, visiting family, keeping kids entertained. I could remember only one day since being a mom where I had the day to myself. I really need to have another one soon! How about you?

Re: Do you ever get the day just for yourself?

DH always has been good about me attending things like yoga or going out for a few hours to shop or whatever.

Honestly "I" start to feel guilty when I'm away for long periods.

I feel moreso as a couple, we don't get time away to do anything, ever.

Last weekend we took the day to go out to the wineries and I can't remember the last time we did something like that, just the two of us.

Yes, DH and I never go out just us 2 either. Actually one time- a wedding that the kids weren't invited to. And I felt guilty leaving them but it's nice to do once in a while!

Not a whole day, but I try to get out by myself every now and then to just go to the gym, get my nails done or go shopping.

Re: Do you ever get the day just for yourself?

I rarely get an hour to myself let alone an entire day! But I have made outings to AC with my mom a few times this past year. They feel sooooo good. To only have to worry about myself is simply amazing! I always took that time for granted before dd.

A whole day is rare, but I do get time to go out with friends, nails, gym. DH and I have left DS with in laws overnight a few times in the 2 yrs he's been alive, I miss him so much though so I dont do it a lot.

Re: Do you ever get the day just for yourself?

Nope! I'm a SAHM, DH works long hours and sometimes on the weekends. I'm lucky if my mom or MIL watch DD for a few hours so I can run to the supermarket or Starbucks in peace!

About every 4 months I get my hair highlighted and I'm gone for about 3 hours...that's the most pampering I get! Chat Icon

I wouldn't change a thing though!

Do you ever get the day just for yourself?

I havent had an entire day but def a one -few hours to myself at least once a week. To do things like nails done or shop. My dh and i make sure we give each other that once a week.

I admit when im gone for a few hours i miss dd and sometimes feel guilty but its soooo freeing to only have to worry about me.

Ehh, I am a FTWM maybe my lunch break lol. Once in a while I do take off when its DH's day to take DD to his parents house. I love it and sometimes go back to sleep, go shopping, pig out just spend me time.

Re: Do you ever get the day just for yourself?

Once in a while. I never ask for them, but sometimes my Mom or my Aunt will ask to take DD for a few hours (10am-4pm or something) and I'll get the day to myself.

Do you ever get the day just for yourself?

No, and I'd honestly feel weird if I did. I'd miss my family! I have a few activities that I do just for me each week- yoga, zumba, and rehearsals for my singing group. So I do get that me time. But I don't think I'd want a whole day.

Do you ever get the day just for yourself?

No. So in order to create one, I occassionslly take off a random day during the week, DH is at work and DD is at daycare. I run a few errands and enjoy the quiet.

NOt often, but every now and again when either my parents take DD for the day or my DH takes DD to his parents for the day - tomorrow will be one of those days and I cant wait. I do miss DD when I don't spend the day with her but generally on the days that I get the day to myself, I will still do some sort of activity with her in the morning to spend some QT !

Re: Do you ever get the day just for yourself?

Every few weeks I get my nails done but that's about it (sometimes I will even take DD1 with me so it's not even all of the time that I am by myself).

Nope, but I don't mind. The only day I had to myself was when I was away for my sister's bachelorette. And that was exhausting! I work M-F so I love being able to spend the weekend with DS.

Re: Do you ever get the day just for yourself?

No but I do get time. FTWM and I work nights. So sometimes before I go to pick up DD I'll do something for myself. I find I have to schedule it and also give DH time so he can do what he wants / needs.
