Wedded Wednesday: Me Time

Do you think that it is wrong to have "me time"? When speaking to my friend Dani this past weekend, we both talked about the activities that we enjoy with and without our spouses. I have several friends who feel the same as we do, which is that  "me time" is good so that you can have better "we time."  I also have friends who seem to want to do everything with their spouse. I think that if I did everything with the hubby, don't get me wrong I love the hubby, but  I  think I would be crazy or just bored.

I do not know if it is the only child in me or not , but I enjoying being with just me at times. On another point of clarity, I do not want to hang with my hubby's friends all the time and I am sure that he does not always want to be around my girlfriends. I truly feel that having your own space and interest bring freshness and variety to your relationship. Becoming better individuals make you better as a couple. What do you think?

Definitely agree that a little ME makes it better when it's WE. I participate in the 52 weeks of ME challenge on my blog each Friday to find time to do just that, make time for yourself. Maybe check it out??
Couldn't imagine always working to please your husband, children, and others. You should come first.

I agree! When I first got married I would feel guilty for wanting some "me time". I felt that as newlyweds there's this idea that we were supposed to be togethe ALL THE TIME. Now that we've adjusted and figured things out a little better - what works and doesn't for us, we've learned that it's OK to have our separate time. It's makes for a healthier union in my opinion!

Love, Marriage and then a _______________

Love, marriage and then a baby carriage. I am preggers. I am 15 weeks pregnant. I know that it is not fall along, but I wanted to share our blessing on my blog. We are very excited about the little one, that we are currently calling Baby J. I have not had much sickness. I have had periods of nausea, but it is not consistent. I have noticed that my body is changing, as it should. I just guess that I was not expecting my body to change that quick.  As my friend, Bev says, " Your growing a life. What do you expect?" She is right. Really, I do not know what to expect. It will be quite a little journey as another part of me sweeping through  life.
