Yea! DH is out of town for a family wedding and I just happen to have the next 4 days off. DD #1 moved into her own place this weekend and DD #2 is away at college. It's just me and the dog for the next 4 days. :-D :-D :-D Wait, what am I doing here?? I need to go sew!!

erstan947 09-08-2011 05:54 AM

I love the "by myself" days. Enjoy .... just do what you want!

Airwick156 09-08-2011 05:56 AM

SEW HECK!!!! I'd be taking a LONG LONG nap, lounge around naked, take a bubble bath, order out chinese then I would go shopping and then maybe sew. LOL But I would make sure I was clothed when they delivered Chinese. LOL

Hope you enjoy your free time. Just think NO COOKING, NO dishes to wash WOW Can I come to your house?

You are so lucky! I haven't been alone in my house for years! DH is here 24/7. Love him to pieces but would love some *me* time occasionally.

I always feel this way when my daughter and husband are both away for several days. After day 1 day I want them back, need more noise in this big old house.

Cassews 09-09-2011 06:23 AM

I love it when DH is gone .. and love the week he goes hunting !! its more of a camping trip than anything else in the winter for him, he just takes pictures anymore ! LOL but me and the dog can do whatever we want this year (as this is the first year of the avatar and me!)and we are gonna have fun, I may even go visit the grands who knows (they want to make quilts !LOL)

jdiane318 09-09-2011 06:48 AM

I treasure my 'alone' time very much.

katsewnsew 09-09-2011 07:05 AM

Enjoy your time, it goes by faster than you think!!!

nancy59 09-09-2011 08:12 AM

I'm jealous, I never get alone time, if my DH is gone he takes my SIL and that mean I get my granddaugher for the time. Enjoy your time

Stitchit123 09-09-2011 11:21 AM

You lucky thing Even when I have a day off I still have to much else to do and or finish before i'll ever get to start a new project- I really truly hate moving -Welp break time is over for me I have windows to wash inside and out :thumbdown: house cleaning sucks :-(

vivoaks 09-09-2011 12:43 PM

Oh yes, definitely enjoy yourself! The time will fly by, and you'll feel like nothing was accomplished the whole time....ask me how I know? :thumbup:

Johanna Fritz 09-09-2011 12:46 PM

My DH and teenage sons are going to a Scout Camp again for this weekend. I intend to dye fabric all weekend. I only plan to stop for the 9/11 memorial service on Sunday night.

grannypat7925 09-09-2011 01:56 PM

Enjoy! It is so nice when there is only you to worry about.

Chris Little 09-09-2011 02:07 PM

I to have the next 4 days off lol I started mine with fabric shopping lol

Mariposa 09-09-2011 02:30 PM

Just enjoy yourself! :)

quiltpd 09-09-2011 02:35 PM

Enjoy your "alone" time ! Guess I'd be lazy and read a book or take over the remote and watch what I wanted to watch !

Sewnique 09-09-2011 07:41 PM

Enjoy this much needed alone time! My hubby stays with his Mom on Wednesday nights and 2 Sunday nights a month, who has Alzehimers. I hate it for her and for him being away from home but-----I love it for me because I can go to bed when I want. I can sew as long as I want. But, if I lounged around naked and happened to pass by a mirror, I am afraid I would never, ever, recover!!!LOL

BellaBoo 09-09-2011 09:42 PM

The only difference I notice if DH is away is that I miss him being around. I don't do anything differently when he is here or away. My friends say DH is away I have the week to do what I want. I know I would be miserable not feeling like that everyday in my own home.

ging10ging 09-10-2011 06:19 PM

enjoy your little vacation. have fun. sue

psquared52 09-11-2011 05:07 PM

Those are my most favorite days. I get dressed around 3p...or maybe not at all. Eat buttery salty popcorn and a cold beer in bed for dinner. Good times!
