Oh Happy Day


Happy Wednesday!

I'm linking up with my dear friend Alicia and her 
You can read all about it here.

Basically, she gives an assignment each week to help us Mommas give a little time to ourselves.
This week, she challenged us to have some alone time.

Oh  . . . .
my family knows, 
this gal needs some alone time.
If I don't have alone time I start to get a little cranky pants.
 It's not pretty. 

I thought this challenge was going to be easy peasy-
but it was a crazy busy week and it definitely was a challenge for me.
I had great plans to have a Saturday morning all to myself- 
hair cut, highlights, a lil' junk hunting-
but it just didn't work out.
So I had to sneak in a little 'mommy alone time' at home.

 So I warmed up some left over coffee

 grabbed the latest Country Living

and snuggled up with my new grannie blanket on the porch swing.

It was lovely.
I need to do this more often.
Can you give us the same challenge next week Alicia?


 
Have a wonderful Wednesday!
I hope you're able to squeeze in a little 'me time' today!

  4. That sounds so relaxing. One of my dreams is having a front porch, it looks idyllic. Rx

  5. I need to do this! I was not able to join in Alicia's challenge this week :( sadface. :(
    I do have that magazine so maybe I will try to this week!
    I love that you read Country Living. None of my (in real life) friends get it. LOL!
