I should have had a tooth out this morning, and have a work thing to attend tonight with DP. I duly arranged for DD (7mo) to stay with my parents and dropped her off last night. 9am this morning the dentist called and cancelled the appointment.

There any many things I should do, my windows are filthy, the cupboards are bare, I could go and do some exercise and earn some extra points before tonight. I could even empty the laundry baskets and do all the ironing.

BUT...what I really want to do is lounge about in my dressing gown, play about on my laptop, have a nice long bath, maybe a little nap, and luxuriate in the fact that I have several hours all to myself. AIBU to think bugger it all and just have some "me" time today?

It's lunchtime so you've spent half the day doing that already. Long may it continue!

You mean you got dressed, went out... and how you're back in your dressing gown?

In the voice of the kids, nice one!

YANBU but you must must must ring your DP first and tell him, its deceitful not to Wink

Chill. If you need a break, and can take a break, do it.

No YANBU at all, lounge round and enjoy :-)

I have loads of work I should be soon but apart from checking emails once I haven't touched it! The only productive thing I've done today is take the kids to school and do a wii dance workout for the magic extra WW points!

Aldiwhore....but he'll find me jobs to do "since I'm not busy"! ;)

Folk Girl.....yes thats exactly what I did. Blush But I was sooo cold, and my dressing gown is all fluffy and warm and I just couldn't resist it!

Threeprinces....Thats more than I've managed! :)
