The First Time In Years...Weird.

I know the feeling of being alone at home. I was alone for three years after the evil ex left. It did feel weird. No one there. I was so used to the kids being there. But it took me some time to get used to it. I know how you feel. But the difference is your significant other and children will be coming home. So enjoy you time alone. Relax and MyLot for a while.

I know how it feels to be alone. Good that you're in mylot today, at least you're not totally alone. Take care.

From a full house to an empty house! Only seems a few days ago when you had a house full, looking after children and now you find yourself alone! Think of it as quality time to yourself, do things you can't do when you are not alone, and grab this opportunity, maybe to pamper yourself, have a long soak in the bath with no interruptions! That is what I used to do when my partner was out and I had the house to myself, I would unplug the phone so I could relax. Or you could cuddle up on the sofa and watch your favourite movie, again with no interruptions! Enjoy your time alone, use it wisely my friend!

Wow - and I mean WOW. You'll have to have another discussion on your me, myself, and I evening!! My two kids are 8 and 3 . . . and I've never had an empty house to myself for that long in their entire lives. There have been times when hubby took them out for a couple hours during the day - but that's about it - not a whole entire evening. Hee hee - I honestly can't picture it for myself either! If I knew well in advance, I think I would think of something to do to go out. Not necessarily with friends either - it's rare that I go anywhere on my own. Dare I go grocery shopping on a night like that? Hee hee. I just know I would doing something "domestic" like that - or clean up the house. I'm not one to eat candy bon bons and sit in front of the boob tube for hours on end. Hope you enjoy your me time - whatever you decide to do!!!

So, how was it? I hope you didn't have any problems overnight. That you were safe until your hubby came back. It's rare that I get to be myself alone at night. When I do, like you, I find myself in front of the computer.

Well, maybe I company, to you I would keep it willingly! Seriously, it feels strange to find you alone, perhaps because to you, it's never happened before. To me it really like to be alone. Alone with myself, and no one else! I alone do not have accountable to no one. I do what I want (always respecting the etiquette of life!), I eat sleep and no one bothers me. However, know with certainty that there are people, in fact I would say that the majority of people, alone they are sick. I hope that is not for you, the case tonight!

I remember when I would have given almost anything to have an entire evening to myself, when the kids were young. Pamper yourself. Eat what you want, put on some comfy pajamas, do whatever you want to and don't feel guilty about it!

I hope he gets enough fares to make a good income. Do your kids enjoy spending time at your mother's? I know a few people who will be here all night.

Welcome to my world. That's how my life is always...no-one but me, the goats, the dogs and the cat. I love it.

Oh girl! I hope it went ok. What did you do?

Hope you enjoyed it. I'm home alone a lot during the day.. but I haven't been home alone at night in years.

I, for one,would be glad to keep you company. I would spend the evening doing things you can't do with all of them there. Turn the tv up or the radio and dance to some music, take a bubblebath or give yourself some spa treatments. Take advantage of it because it may not happen again. And you might have wished you had.

Hopefully, your husband will be safe in his job. Driving cab can be risky--especially those drivers who work at night. I'm certain that you shall be fine home alone with the dogs. It is good to sometimes be home without the husband and kids. This will give you a chance to do things without the usual busyness of the household.

I feel ya. When hubby started this job and started working nights again it took a long time to get used to sleeping alone. It's creepy by yourself some times and other times it is total heaven

I was a single parent for years....in the summer my mom and dad would take the kids for a week....I would have the house all to myself...and I got sooooooo lonely! LOL....instead of enjoying the time without them, I missed them so much! Hope you enjoy your time alone!

Hope you enjoyed it. I always loved those kind of nights and mainly because they were so rare in my home. They still are. Seems there is always someone here even though I am single and my girls are all grown.

I know what you're saying. Back when had my first two, my in-laws wanted to take them out for the day. Hubby wasn't around and a friend of our stopped over. We sat and visited and finally they said "why are we just sitting here". Because I didn't realize I could actually leave the house because the kids weren't there It IS an odd feeling. And you loose yourself in the daily routine enough to not even know what to do with yourself when you get that free time. I cherish that alone time now (kids are in their teens), but when the kids were young and you're just busy being mom we forget that we had interests and hobbies of our own after a while.

I probably understand you, because I rarely I am alone in my house. We as family almost always stay together in home and when we go to visit relatives we too go together. There was only few times when I have stayed alone in my house. Maybe try to enjoy this night alone doing some relax bath lying and maybe watch your favorite movies so you will not feel alone. I hope you will not get bored today.

ah... yes! it's weird and scary to stay alone with dog only. the good thing, you can do anything you want, a freak thing or the crazy thing that will make your day becomes different

I bet you will hear every bump and creak in the house. I used to when I was all alone. When my family spent a few days in North Carolina I heard lots of noises at night. It was just the normal noises that occur when the house cools during the night but the sounds were still eerie.
