This is exactly how I feel. I hate that I feel guilty about just wanting some time to myself. My husband works driving a bulk cement truck and so doesn't work in the winters. From December on he often won't leave the house for weeks at a time. As I work I never have ANY time in the house completely by myself. Right now I'm to the point that I'm ready to pay for HIM to take a vacation - out of town, out of state, out of the country...it doesn't matter - and I will take the week off and just luxuriate in the privacy of my own home!!!
