I'd get a mani/pedi or go clothes shopping or just window shop. For some reason I was really into The Paper Store-- I'd just walk around and make mental notes for gifts for people in the future. </p> <p>Now I prefer staying in... too much effort to go outside! I'd rather stay in and needlepoint, or play games online, or watch tv. Usually "me" time is interspersed with cleaning up, dishes, and laundry though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-rather-go-out-or-stay-in-for-your-me-time#post-189128 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 11:28:19 +0000 lemondrop 189128@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Out!! I spend enough time inside the house as it is, if I want me time, I am running in the other direction (otherwise I would spend it playing with my son anyway). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-rather-go-out-or-stay-in-for-your-me-time#post-189116 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 11:15:56 +0000 Andrea 189116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I dunno anymore. I think I have forgotten what "me" time is! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-rather-go-out-or-stay-in-for-your-me-time#post-189097 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 11:10:10 +0000 DillonLion 189097@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends what state my house is in. If it is dirty, staying home would be totally unrelaxing because I'd want to clean the whole time, so I'd probably go out and get a pedicure/shop. If it was clean, I'd stay in and relax. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-rather-go-out-or-stay-in-for-your-me-time#post-189095 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 11:08:42 +0000 Running Elley 189095@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Baby isn't born yet but for now when I get "me" time I'd rather stay home and just relax. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-rather-go-out-or-stay-in-for-your-me-time#post-189093 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 11:08:06 +0000 Mrs. Pen 189093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>a little of both. I did have my mom come over to watch Cobi just so I could actually clean the house! It was nice. </p> <p>Yesterday she watched him so I could get my hair done, I hadn't had it cut since September and it desperately needed it. </p> <p>Both situations are really nice - but on a day-to-day level, I need to clean my house and hardly have the time, so I guess that's what I'd pick.</p> <p>My husband is always willing to give me "me" time during the weekend if I ask :) he is so sweet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-rather-go-out-or-stay-in-for-your-me-time#post-189090 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 11:05:53 +0000 chopsuey 189090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd go out for me time. Eat, get a pedi, massage, walk around and shop in peace. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-rather-go-out-or-stay-in-for-your-me-time#post-189069 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 10:57:59 +0000 heffalump 189069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sometimes my mom offers to babysit and either take LO to lunch or dinner or something or stay here while I go out. I find that either way I usually end up spending my time picking up the house, etc. or running around getting things done, so it's not relaxing. </p> <p>But if I had to pick I'd probably go out, that way I'm more productive. </p>
