Michelle, that's exactly it - for an introvert, time alone to recharge is a <i>need</i>, not a mere desire!Hippie Housewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14718357472343295031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5051258436941012775.post-68687456740460166842011-01-15T22:04:20.438-08:002011-01-15T22:04:20.438-08:00I totally hear you about traveling being hard on a...I totally hear you about traveling being hard on an introvert! I remember traveling to Ireland to visit with my in-laws and we spent three weeks in my father in law's crowded, smoky house. I love them, but it was just too many people smoking cigarettes in a small space for too long! Time alone is something I need like food, water and clean air! I'm glad to know I'm not alone in that. :)<br /><br />Your list also made me appreciate the things my mom has done to make her house welcoming for us & our kids. she's got the grandma toys and is getting better at learning the protocol on parenting philosophies.Michelle @ The Parent Vortexhttp://www.theparentvortex.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5051258436941012775.post-85240231061264687242011-01-15T13:59:33.100-08:002011-01-15T13:59:33.100-08:00I agree.

DH's family is wonderful. They're just, well, LOUD. And it's almost 2 hours each way to visit my dad the next day. A couple of very busy days!<br /><br />Love your list :-) Any chance you can anonymously send it to our relatives?! ;-)CMBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07319698236961774725noreply@blogger.com
