I love some me time. DH is in the reserves so away one weekend a month, though normally only for one night. It is harder with DD and now I'm pregnant but as others have said - picking the food, tv, hogging the bed - awesome! He goes away for a week or two a couple of times a year and I do find it hard by the end with DD and working part time. But I've always been someone who NEEDS me time or I go a bit nutty.
