I did the opposite thing, I left the house yesterday with a friend. We went to the local Amish farmers market, then to the green houses for our mums, pumpkins and asters. Headed to a new winery - loved it so much we signed up for the wine club. Shared a bottle of wine on the back porch before returning to our daily duties. It was a wonderful day. I do love my alone time - though don't seem to have to much of it! My alone time is usually when everyone else is in bed - from 10pm-2am on the weekends.
