My Cherished Me Time
I get up at three or four in the morning
Because I want to play a couple of hours before I leave for work
I love my job, but I love my play time more
I have many hobbies, so many choices
Some mornings I write poems, other mornings I paint on canvases.
I draw cartoons or I play scrabble-type word games
I love giving myself this "me time"
When I was a young mother I never had any me time.
When I was a teenager I didn't either.
I worked almost every second I was not in school
During my high school years, to get money for college
In highschool and college your time is planned by others
When you are a young parent, your time belongs to your children
My children are grown; my husband is self-sufficient
Now I can have me time which is why I wake up at three or four.
I do not want to waste one second of my "me time".
