What to do when you get off work early?

Our company closed at 1 today!  Yay!  So the big dilemma do I go home and hang out with the kids or do I take a couple of hours to myself to do some shopping and have a coffee?  I decided to do a quick shopping trip in search of a new Thanksgiving dress for the little one, I skipped coffee and zipped home.  But I have to say I'm really feeling in need of some quality me time.  

I think womos spend the majority of their time with someone else's needs/expectations weighing on them-- either at work or at home, that it's necessary for a little quiet solo time for some rest and relaxation.  Although being away from the kids does cause a little guilt, I think the benefit of a more relaxed mom is beneficial to all... so next time I get off early I think I'll make sure to work in a coffee break!
