I need some time for myself
These last weeks made me realize I need my own time and space even if it is only a few minutes. My kids are very demanding, they request me for everything, sometimes I think they only call me to hear my voice. I don’t mind and I even like the fact that they want me around them but if a neighbor knocks at the door and invite them to play they just forget I exist and want to go.
Sometimes I just want 5 minutes alone, with no one calling me or requesting my attention. I like to be at home on my free time so I don’t attend any activities out of the house. I was invited to attend fitness classes, to go to swimming classes even to take some piano lessons but I really like to be at home, on my computer or watching television. I know that if I had an activity outside the house I would be able to have my time but at the end of the day, after 10 hours away from home I like to be at home.
My time alone is after the kids are asleep but I’m just too tired to enjoy it. My husband also could take the kids for a walk and leave me at home but he never does so. So sometimes I just sort of hide in some room and enjoy those 2-4 minutes of peace before some of the kids find me.
