I am going to soak in an Epsom salt bath and then maybe infuse one of my essential oils for relaxation or stress and try to finish the book I have been on the last 50 pages of for awhile now. It is harder to read, the pages and paragraphs are long...ironic since I write long posts.
Maybe look for simple, cheap craft ideas on Pinterest and start writing down ideas of things my daughter wants to do with me.
I am so relieved my daughter just doesn't want to shut me out. When she was receptive, I told her I want to spend more time with her, just doing things the 2 of us. She seemed to be happy about this idea, so my new goal is to keep my end as promised.

I hope you are relaxing and enjoying some alone time.
I think it's wonderful you and your daughter are thinking alike in spending quality time together. Many children, especially daughters long for that 1:1 attention w/mom. You will likely enjoy this now and will likely look back some day and be so glad you made an extra special effort. I think it will be great for both of you! I think this helps your self-esteem and definitely helps your daughter's self-esteem.
She'll soon be a teenager and the bonds you create now will be very important. It's kind of like laying a firm foundation for your relationship with one another.
I am jealous!Lol!
I grew up with a houseful of siblings and did not have much 1:1 time with parents.
How exciting!
