After having 2 lovely daughters and being pregnant again I have just realised that some times I just need time out. Problem is my life is so wrapped up with the kids that I don't know what to do for time out!!!
I go to the gym. The bigger kids are at school so I put DD2 into the childcare at the gym (which she loves) for 2 hours and I go and socialise, sweat and have a laugh!
Every night after the kids are in bed I take an hour or so to spend on BB or FB or emailing friends, reading a good book etc.
Less often I leave them at home with DH and go shopping on my own (bliss!), have coffee with a friend, and my current fave - go and get a pedicure! I'm also thinking of making the most of DH's holidays and taking myself off to the movies one day this week, all on my own
