This is a very important post to me:

I'm not formally homeschooling yet, but yes, I am a stay at home mom with two children here, and I am an introvert. And what she's writing about here is really striking home with me.
(Heck, after this last weekend I'm having major introvert needs - I am NOT wanting to go out and run errands today, even though I know I need to do it.)
Lessee - I'm not getting up earlier than the kids, usually, but I'm definitely staying up later. The books, oh definitely. The incredibly strong desire to eat alone. I say that it's because they bug me and want parts of my food, but yes, it's because I don't want to be TOUCHED and I want the alone time. And yes, the computer helps.
Wow, I'm not the only one. Good to know. Going to be thinking about this a lot.
Right now I have enforced NAP time and am going to go enjoy a solitary activity.
