I always have! Not all the time, of course, but just time to be with my thoughts. Dink around the house. Needless to say, these days, that doesn't happen very often. I miss it though.

My husband is the opposite. Can't stand being alone. He is just not a loner.

Absolutely! I love having my hubby and kids at home, but I really do enjoy having some alone time too. I know for myself it makes me a better person to be around to just have even a few moments to myself, even though some days that's hard to come by, especially with school being done soon.

I'm a loner by nature so i don't really mind being alone most of the time. Some days it gets a little lonely though.

I like alone time in moderation. It's gives me a chance to complete my thoughts without interruption. A few hours here and there with an occassional day to myself would be wonderful! Of course, I don't get that often as a homeschooling mom of 4!

I am a total loaner! People are always surprised when I say that, but I love being alone.

I love being alone!! I really like going out to eat by myself. Most people think that is strange. I am not anti-social though. I like other people too!!

I could definitely use more adult interaction during the day.

I could probably add up my alone time during the last 5 years to equaling a few hours I think that is a good thing. However, I could use a little more.

Today was the first time in MONTHS that both of my children took a nap. It was wonderful. Otherwise, I have not had the house to myself since before Christmas when my hubby took my oldest to grandma's while I wrapped presents.
