We all occasionally fantasize about what we would do with a day completely to ourselves. Would it be a spa day, a day of shopping with a good friend or something completely different. What would you do if you had a day completely for YOU?

One day to myself is not enough!

If I had a week to myself, I'd probably take a cross-country road-trip using the interstate / freeway. Long-distance driving is relaxing in good weather.

Doing it today! It's my birthday and this sucks but I am sick. Lousy head and chest cold. So I am promised a day with no distractions, not that I can do much to enjoy it. So...my fantasy day today is to catch up on the forums, relax and watch some boob tube.

Happy Birthday! Feel better

Yes! Me too! Cross country roadtrip is on my bucket list.

I fantasize of the times that will be experienced after nursing school, when I do not have a constant to-do list that reminds me to study, type up a care plan or review my Saunders book (which unfortunately is becoming my trusty side kick).

A day to myself? No dogs or kids or family? Ooh... Wake up naturally (no alarms!) before sunrise, go for a long walk with my camera and catch a few gorgeous shots above the bluffs... coffee and pastries to warm up, and a good book by the fireplace. Phone turned off, of course, and the computer off, too, so that there are no distractions. Prepare a leisurely lunch and eat it on the patio (if it's warm) or couch (if it's cold), watching the weather go by. Go to a movie in the afternoon, with friends if I can get anyone interested in the flick, then out to dinner for a melt-in-your-mouth steak and to the pub later for drinks with the guys (because it always seems more interesting to talk and drink with guys than women) where we compete to see who has the most interesting stories (I can't win with the folks I hang out with) or the wittiest reparte (I occasionally win, particularly hilarious if anyone happens to be taking a drink at the moment of the punchline). Then home to clean sheets (I have no idea how they got clean, because laundry is something that wouldn't happen on my _ideal_ day off...) and interesting dreams that have nothing whatsoever to do with work...
