I HATED it. And I didn't sleep in. In fact, I couldn't sleep much longer than 2-3 hours consecutively, tops. I was so happy to get home! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-momcation#post-1380766 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 10:03:00 +0000 Smurfette 1380766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cmomma17: I wouldn't either. I am alone Mon-Thurs night (R is asleep by 7) and I get BORED. But waking up without an alarm or R waking me up sounds fabulous. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-momcation#post-1380707 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 09:49:27 +0000 Mrs. Twine 1380707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cmomma17: Nope! I don't even really want to be away from the girls. But boy, oh boy, if Mr. T could be home every day all day for about a whole weekend, it would be SO deluxe! I just like getting little snippets of time here and there where I don't feel like I need to maximize my productivity.<br /> @Running Elley: I make myself go at least once during nap. And it's sooooooo gooooood. :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-momcation#post-1380705 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 09:48:46 +0000 Running Elley 1380705@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cmomma17: I don't think I would either!! At home I wouldn't mind I don't think. </p> <p>My ideal momcation would be a day at home by myself I think, at this point. I'd sleep in, get take out, watch tv, do my nails and take a nap. Maybe I'd leave to have my nails done by a professional... Any longer than a day and I think I'd miss my family too much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-momcation#post-1380700 Tue, 28 Jan 2014 09:47:28 +0000 .twist. 1380700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cmomma17: haha nope.
