Things that now qualify as “me time”

Breastpumping
My commute to work
Taking a shower
The three block walk to return my library books
Sleeping
Leaning on my similarly exhausted husband and staring vacantly at something on a screen

**UPDATE** I just finished Tina Fey’s new book Bossypants and was put to shame by her fantastic list of “Me Time” activities. I totally forgot to mention “Say you’re going to look for the diaper crème, then go into your child’s room and just stand there until your spouse comes in and curtly says, ‘What are you doing?’”

Go buy her book.

  1. That sounds about right except that you forgot…

    — sitting on the toilet
    — loading and unloading the washing machine
    — washing breast pump parts
    — actually being at work (Someone told me that I was lucky I got so much “me” time at work)

    Hang in their, it does get easier… kind of… in a way :)
