It has been over a year since I have had ANY alone time with my husband, (other than when the kids are in bed:D ). We do not have any family or friends that we trust to watch our kids. Daycare centers out here do not offer weekend or late night hours. We work separate shifts to save money and we rarely see each other with the kids let alone without them. And I am going crazy!

I NEED SOME TIME ALONE WITH MY HONEY!!

Any help at all would be wonderful. I am not expecting someone to offer to watch our kids but if you know of any centers in Indiana that offer weekend or late night hours I would be (and my husband to I'm sure:p ) VERY grateful.

Do you have any neighbors that have kids that are in high school or in college that are willing to stay the night and help watch your kids? Perhaps you can hire a babysitter to do this once a month or so?

Well, we are very private people and we don't trust anyone. If we get a sitter we don't want them in our house. Because people like to go through your house, have people over, use your phone, order movies, etc... then those friends show up later on and rob you blind. SO if we get a sitter we would want them to keep the kids at their house and we will want to check it out first. And we live out in the country, so we don't really have neighbors.

Yeah find somebody that babysits in your area but make sure they have references and dependable. I NEVER had a break from my kids. Three times in 12 years.
One of the times I wanted to go to the PTA open house because my kids were crying that I never care enough to go to their school work. So I got two teenagers next door and she had kids in and out of my house the entire time and was poking and scratching my kids.
I had specified don't let anybody in too. I handed them $5.00 and told them that was all I was giving them because of the way they treated my kids.

Some people will babysit in their home.

Hey, weren't we just talking about rocks with heads? LOL:p

I know what you mean though, I had a playstation, games, stereo, CD's and a freakin pack of steaks stolen from my house the last time we let someone babysit in our home. Only it was a week later and they squealed on the baysitter girl 5 min after they had them in custody.
