What do you do when you're home alone?

[nomummytummy]

I have not been home alone for months. And when I am, it's usually only for an hour or two on a weekend afternoon....

Ditto but I do have a fantasy that involves DH & 3 boys going away for 4 days. Day 1, I get to clean the house from top to bottom. Noone around to mess up where I have just tidied. Change sheets to white ones, have a bath & get into bed early with a good book. Day 2 - wake up, lie in bed realise I am alone in house. Feel the cleanness all around me. Bliss. Get up go to kitchen to make coffee - wow it's still clean from yesterday.

Spend next 3 days enjoying tidy quiet home, eating when & what I want - you know how sop is a meal for a woman, but not for a man. Just that kind of thing.

i am however confused about how this became my fantasy. When did raunchy get replaced with tidy????

I realize that with 2 boys and one husband, I'm only alone during the day when I'm supposed to be working, or riding the bike.

I would love an evening alone -- and I would buy a big stack of mystery books, order sushi and buy a really good bottle of white wine and drink one glass (OK maybe 2) and do nothing but read.

Sign me up!

So I am home alone until Thanksgiving day, when I'll join DH down at our boat for the long Thanksgiving holiday. I miss him already, but I'm having a pleasant evening, hanging out online and watching TV (Lisa Williams: Life Among the Dead on Lifetime, fascinating...if you're into psychic stuff, check it out!)

It's going to be a long few days, but at least we can talk on the phone. I'm sure I'll keep busy. Already have a long list of everything I need/want to do this weekend.

Hey, who says they have to be mutually exclusive? Maybe you need to tweak your fantasy!
