How often do you get out with your friends and no kids?

[Brooke]

How often do you get to enjoy time out with your friends w/o your kids or SO? Is it enough for you, not enough, just about right? What kinds of things do you do?

[Danielle]

Gosh, other than lunches at work.. maybe every couple of months.

[Danielle]

Oh, and we usually have dinner and drinks at someone's house. I'd like to do this more but we all have kids so it's tough.

[Emily]

A big yeah that to Danielle. Aside from driving to work after dropping off the kids and my lunches at work, I'd say about once every three months or so. I don't want to go out every night or anything but I would like a night to myself once a month or so.

Very, very infrequently. Most of the time when I'm kid-free it's so that I can go out with Steve.

Next August, though, at the Spiffy get-together I should get a couple of kid-free days to hang with my friends(and I hope there will be a TON of you there. :D)

Once every few months. Maybe four times a year, max.

[Shana]

Back in the day, it would have been several times a week :rolleyes

Now, I honestly don't particularly care to go out without my husband:dunno He really is my best friend, and nothing seems as fun to me when he's not there.

Fortunately, my 2 best friends are in very, very commited relationships now and can pretty much relate. When we do go "out", it's typically with one of them in tow.

I don't have any friends. I go out by myself a lot.

[Brooke]

I get out a lot with just me and my friends. During the summer, it seems like at least once a week, if not more. Some of those times are at the gym with one of my friends who has a membership there also. Otherwise though, I know I need my time out. And we're lucky to have a core group of friends that we can go hang with.

During the winter, it's at least once every 2-3 weeks.

[Christine]

At least once a month. My best friends are my homeschooling buddies and we have a scheduled Mom's Night Out once a month. We've taken to having unscheduled ones as often as we can get away with it too. ;)

We have get togethers with the kids about every week or every other week. The kids all play so well together that it's almost like being alone without kids. We let them run wild at my friend's house and we sit around the kitchen table laughing, crying, etc.

Most of the time, daughter is 19 so she goes her own way most of the time. We go shopping together when she wants something. I am not suppose to have that figured out though!

[kcmomma]

I get away without DH and Madison quite often, but the problem for many people is that when I do that, I've got 20 or so other kids with me....(Key Club is the main reason I get away). I don't mind though, I ENJOY Key Club immensily!!

[freebiemom]

Rarely do I go out without DH or the kids. If it's a kid-free outing, then I'm with DH. Every now and again I make plans with a friend but honestly, I'm away from DH and the kids so much during the week because of work that I love and am very selfish of my time with them so I don't mind at all not going out without them very often.

How Offen? well ... Let me say NOT ENOUGH !!

:)

I have not gone out this year much cause of my surgery but now that I am getting better ... I NEED to go out without kids or hubby.

[Faith]

I'm pretty lucky about getting out without Rob or Shelby. Once a month, I have a scrapbook group I crop with. I also hang out with my friend from HS. I usually go to her house and we have dinner and drinks. She just moved back into the area so we try and get together as much as we can. It usually works out to be 2x a month.
