Or sometimes I don't turn the tv on at all and just read. Like @MamaMoose: my husband can't stand to have a quiet house, so the tv is ALWAYS on. I really enjoy it being quiet when he's not there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1215272 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 09:30:51 +0000 Bao 1215272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I read or HB! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1215228 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 09:15:43 +0000 Alivoo01 1215228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I clean like a mad woman. It's the only uninterrupted time I get to actually get down and dirty with everything. Afterwards, I indulge in my favorite book or tv show. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1215181 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 08:57:36 +0000 blackbird 1215181@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hot bath, clean, watch my tv shows, read a magazine...enjoy every second :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1215111 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 08:14:22 +0000 Lindsay05 1215111@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hellobee, tv, online shop, eat junk and sleep. Very rarely clean. Maybe when I get up to make food, i throw a load of laundry in or something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1215103 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 08:05:39 +0000 edelweiss 1215103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>watch bad tv that my husband really dislikes, like real housewives and kardashians. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1215084 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 07:43:33 +0000 OldEnglandMama 1215084@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm home alone most of the time (DH is based at a hospital in another state). I let myself watch one TV show, but otherwise try not to wallow. At first I was like "haha, freedom - I can do whatever I like and eat whatever I like" - now I mostly just miss him and the chance to have a "normal" life. It's also an effort to make myself cook. I hate leftovers. (Eating for two is proving to be a reasonably good incentive though!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1214857 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 22:06:38 +0000 Silva 1214857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pizza, beer and bad tv.</p> <p>Eta: or nachos. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1214832 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 21:44:54 +0000 cascademom 1214832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I eat marshmallows for dinner and watch bad tv like Lifetime movies. DH is doing a twice a month game night thing. I ordered sushi for myself while LO slept. It was awesome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1214579 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 19:09:53 +0000 lemondrop 1214579@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually the only reason I'm home alone is because I sent my husband and the kiddo out to the Y so I could get a project or two done around the house- painting cabinets was a big one recently! Things that are best done without a toddler getting into. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1214578 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 19:08:11 +0000 artsyfartsy 1214578@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I catch up on whatever show I've been watching and just RELAX! And have a few guilt free snacks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1214573 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 19:06:26 +0000 IRunForFun 1214573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm home alone a lot because DH is so busy and we don't have kids yet. I do any manner of things - clean (eh, infrequently), nap (moderately often), lay on the couch with my ipad or a book and have a girly show on TV in the background (85% of the time.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1214569 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 19:05:09 +0000 maybebaby 1214569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds lovely! I am home with LO but he is sleeping. I just made myself dinner, poured a glass of wine and figuring out what to watch on Netflix :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1214568 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 19:04:50 +0000 Running Elley 1214568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually clean so that I can relax (if I know something needs to be done I can't relax at all) and then I watch shows on Netflix that DH doesn't like and I usually snack! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1214567 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 19:04:04 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1214567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm alone a lot. I clean, read, work on projects, or watch tv. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1214565 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 19:02:44 +0000 MamaMoose 1214565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It doesn't happen ever really. But when I'm home alone with baby and she's sleeping (like right now) I sit in silence and hellobee! My hubs always has the tv on. He has no appreciation for silence. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1214556 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 18:57:29 +0000 Mae 1214556@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Watch netflix shows my husband hates and eat too much take-out. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-when-youre-home-alone-1#post-1214554 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 18:56:03 +0000 Charm54 1214554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DH is out playing hockey and my mom has taken LO for the evening. I'm just realizing it's the first time I've been completely alone since before she was born, so at least 2 months. </p> <p>I am LOVING IT. </p> <p>I'm meant to be out doing errands but instead I'm eating doritos, listening to country music on full blast (DH hates it) and Hellobeeing/magazine reading. It is so heavenly.</p> <p>What do you do when you're home alone? </p>
