Me, Myself and I...
This past weekend, I had the opportunity to spend some time
with myself.
For a few blissful hours on Saturday, I wasn’t a mother, I
wasn’t a spouse, I wasn’t an employee. I
was just me.
This was the first time in what seems like forever, that I
was able to take a drive in my car and be myself.
I didn’t have to be on my way to work or play taxi service to my son and
his friends or run errands, grocery shop or do anything I didn’t want to do.
I was able to leave my house, free of responsibilities. With the sun shining though my car window, I
stopped at the local coffee shop for a “to go” cup and then started out to my
destination. It was nice to know I was headed to a destination
of choice, not necessity. I didn’t even
bother to turn on the radio. I was alone
with myself.
It was
nice to get reacquainted with me. I like
me.

@K13 - I can't believe how much just a few hours alone rejuvenated me.
@Brian - Thanks. It was cool!
I wish I could get things out of my mind and be just with myself. That's harder for me than it sounds, and it's not like I have anything important to worry about.
And yeah, we did have a very nice time with our family - thanks for asking! Got to see my newest nephew again (2 1/2 weeks old) and we had some yummy dinner and dessert. Also, my brother announced he got engaged the night before so it was a very good time! :)
I have not been here in a while. I love this look! Very Jimmy Buffet of you!
Often, I never get further than the coffee shop!
