One of those days, just want to lock myself in and sleep the whole day, just alone time.
 
That is not uncommon, sometimes we feel over exposed or vulnerable, I have done that recently.
Don't worry about it, I think we all do it.
 
Just do it. I did it for one day this week. Was a wonderful day of silence and rest. Without TV or even music.
 
To be alone is to be with God so it's all good, go for it.

Can you talk your kids into staying at a friends house for X amount of time? Sometimes we think we want a whole day, but it gets pretty boring or too quiet after a while.
 
Welcome to my world most of the time. Ha...

But hey, alone time should be cherished, not seen as selfish or negative. I encourage you to take some time for yourself (a reasonable amount of it). :)
 
I think the incident that happen earlier this week got to me, it disturbed me so much that I felt like shutting down for a while and just recharge. So I spent most of the day sleeping, kids were out most of the day so I had time by myself.
 
I was emotionally drained and exhausted, needed to recoupurate. It happens sometimes when you dealing with some stuff and you don't have someone to offload to, but sleeping helped a lot. My sleeping patterns has been messed up for over 2 years, I can hadly sleep for 5 hours a day.

Bored if you slept? How can you get bored while sleeping?

24 hours in a day, might be able to sleep 10 hours (more likely 8 or less), have a cuppa and something to eat, which leaves you something like 13 - 15 hours left. Few people want to do chores with that time, because it's a special alone day, so another 3-4 hours of doing what you want, and then, what now? Roughly how long it would take me to get bored being all alone. lol

Who says you can't? Remember, Jesus decided to be alone when he prayed.

Sometimes, it's good to be alone and to be focused.

There are times you need to be alone and it's quite alright. :)
