I can't really say why I do for a Mom's Night Out, since, well, I'm not one. But: a ZJ's Night Out tends to consist of me going someplace -- any place -- other than the house, often with a book and a cup of tea. Yes, you can do that at home too. For some reason, sometimes I like to go someplace *else* and be by myself and read. I've gone to all night diners for a few hours, I've gone to book stores, I've gone to the park or down by the river. I couple hours out not thinking about anything else tends to help me get a new perspective on life and such.
I would imagine a Mom's Night Out or even just a Rivka's Night Out could consist of the same -- from what I read here, I would think tea and a book would be right up your alley?
You're right, after 9 is late to go out with the schedule you've described. Is there any way you could fit in a bit of Rivka time on your way home from work? My mom tends to get up at very early hours to get and hour to two by herself here in the morning. How she does it I have NO IDEA. But she does, and she drinks her coffee and reads news online and that's how she starts her day and it works for her.
Maybe not even every week, but once or twice a month, or as needed? I don't know if it'll work for you -- I just know it tends to give me a boost when I need it.
