For Myself....

I just recently started working part time and I'm loving it.  I never thought I would look forward to going to work, but it means I get a much needed break, a clean desk that stays clean and isn't cluttered with toys, and I have some space to show my talents other than being a mommy! 

 So, what I do almost every morning now is to stop by the Barnes & Noble near my house and take a few minutes to browse the books, order my favorite drink (iced green tea) and sometimes even a breakfast muffin and then browse some more.  I leave 30 min. before work so I can do this...it's heaven!

I feel like a free adult...it's not alot, but this little "outing" in the morning makes me feel so good and starts my day off with some "mommy downtime" and some goodies...it's just a little piece of heaven in my crazy four kid circus life!  :)

Oh, I totally used to do that when there was a book store near my work -- I'd go in for just a few minutes, read a few pages, browse some books, and I loved that. So glad this is working out for you!
