Becky's Me Time 'linky' has had me thinking about what I do for me.
I know I'm not a young mum - but I'm still a mum and I still have 2 boys that need a mother, even though they would prefer to think they're more independent at 15 and 17.
I have taken a 'me' day, but not really the NORMAL type of me day. I went back. Back to the places I'd gone a year ago. I drove to the lookout I'd gone to with (hmmm, I suppose I should give him a name... Bob will do). I drove to the lookout I'd gone to with Bob. I thought about the day we'd spent together, and I cried over the things that I lost when I lost him out of my life.
I don't really know if it was a good thing or a bad thing. The one thing I do know is that I DIDN'T fall apart. So maybe it was a good 'me time' thing to do.
Only time will tell.
Not 'young' Mumma's need me time, too. Especially those with boys like ours ;)
