In summary, my hubby and both of my sons are leaving Sunday for Boy Scout Camp and my daughter lives with my brother during the week all summer (as his nanny) which means I have the entire house to myself.......all by myself ALL WEEK!!!!

My hubby and both of my sons are leaving Sunday for Boy Scout Camp and my daughter lives with my brother during the week all summer (as his nanny) which means.......I have the entire house to myself.......all by myself ALL WEEK!!!! :sing: :sing: :sing:

I'm just not sure what I'm going to do first.........:p
 
Haha congrats !!!! I know the feeling in june my son and hubby left too. I did have my daughter which is 5 but she is so layed back it was like being alone !!!!!
 
Oh, I'm so jealous! Love my kids but love my breaks too. I have 3 boys...4 yo, and twins that will turn 2 in August. The twins are wreaking havoc on our lives right now (so much so I took the summer off from PC). I haven't been in my house alone since before the twins were born. I would clean, organize, watch an uninterrupted movie, drink wine, make every call known to man without interruption, read a book, take a bath, have the girls over, oh, I could think of a million things you could do. Enjoy your break!
 
Enjoy yourself!! There is noting like having time to yourself to do what you want. Have fun.
 
I love the house to myself! Have fun!
 
Just sit and listen to the sounds of silence...................
 
I know how you feel! DH and DS are going camping shortly after I get back from NC - and I can't wait!
 
Have fun! I love the house to myself as well! I'm looking forward to the kids going back to school; however, I will have a college student who probably won't be gone the same time as the other 2 - we will have to see!

I love it when I get my hubby out of the house just for a few days. He wants the house spotless! I like it clean, but I take a few days break when he is gone:)!
 
I am a single mom and I know how I love to get a break. My DD is 11 now, so it is quite easier but I finally gave her a bedtime so I could get alone time every night before I went to bed. she has a bedtime during the school year but I didn't give her one for summer and she would stay up thinking she could just sleep in...I need quiet time to myself to unwind before bed and I can't get that when she is up and so I was going to bed after her and then still getting up at 5:30am and I couldn't do it.
Enjoy your vacation of alone time!!

LOL Chris... All the men are gone. My daughter will be home for another hour or so and then aahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. LOL. I'm going to wait and let her help me with chores before she leaves (we have a small "farm"). From then on out, it's just me and the animals.
