Today was one of those days that I wish happened much more often.

Tom, feeling guilty for going out most of the weekend, said he wished that I would go out for a whole day and night and have some fun. With Annie still feeding so much, I don’t feel that I can do that, but I did say that I’d love to have some time to myself – to read, go on my laptop, sleep, and eat – so he took the day off today so I could do just that.

After I took the girls to school, I got back in my pyjamas, got in bed with my laptop and the TV, and relaxed – alone – for a couple of hours before having a sleep for two and a half hours.

It was bliss!

To top off my day of pure indulgence, I then recreated my favourite pasta dish, and finished the day by getting back in bed early and having an early night.
