I have been having a real issue with space in my home. Personal space. I got a new television for the down stairs area, and now I have no place to call my own. The kids have the upstairs, the husband has the down stairs and I have the kitchen in which they proceed to walk in and out of. Not to mention there is no comfy chair in the kitchen!
When I was working in real estate my husband was insistent about my computer being in a public room or "we'll never see you".
I found an hour yesterday when I could steel some time in the living room with the television and a martini. It was awesome. I have not idea what I was watching, but the fact that I had the ability to sit and relax was great.
I really feel lost with this working 9-530. I miss my me time. I miss time to work and make calls and time to write and time to read and set goals and study.
It is scary to think that after all my hard work I may be stuck here. There are so many others I need to think about -- namely my kids. I need to help get them through college before I can even thing about "what I want to be when I grow up". I don't intend to use that as an excuse, I just know that they have to take priority now.
Well while I have these few early morning moments I will try to write and ready and pray and dance -- well the knee is still too bad to dance so I will just do the physical therapy exercises.

Can I relate to this. Then on the rare moment they were all out, my mom was still here and deciding to need things since I was not distracted by the rest of the family. It is hard to carve that alone time when you have an active family.
