So what did I do?

Last week I asked what you all would do with 24 hours by yourself. Many said they would organize, sleep, and relax. I took you up on all your suggestions, especially the one about not being bored or freaked out.

Errands consumed the first part of the day. I was amazed at how tired I got running in and out of stores. But it sure went fast not having to unbuckle and buckle kids into carseats. I came home, turned on some food show and fell asleep for an hour and a half. Ah...bliss. Then onto the organizing, cleaning, and over to dinner with friends.

Sleeping alone was weird. I stayed up extra late so I would be tired and fall asleep quickly without hearing all the freaky (made up in my head) noises around the house.

Sleep was restless but I did manage to wake up at 7 and fall back asleep until 9. I haven't slept until 9 in 3 1/2 years! It was great.

Then I was off to the women's retreat at the beach. I'll save that for the next post b/c it was an AMAZING time away with the Lord--and 90 other women!

Thanks for all the suggestions and I hope you all can catch a little time to refresh as well.
