So your work is crazy busy, the kids have homework and afterschool activities, and your parents wonder why they don't hear from you more often. It's been a long winter.
Some tips to help you cope
● Set realistic goals. You can't do it all so prioritize what is important to you.
● Get/accept help. Maybe the kids won't fold the clothes the way you prefer but it's better than having them piled up on top of the dryer. If you can afford it, hire help.
● Take care of yourself. Lots of fruits and veggies and water, adequate sleep, a walk at lunchtime with a coworker or after dinner with the family - all go a long way towards your health and sanity.
● Find some time for yourself. I know, I know. It's the seemingly impossible task. Set aside some time to journal, for a regular massage, to read a chapter in your current book or to do something that causes you to take a deep breath or a sign of relief. Taking care of yourself means you can take better care of your loved ones.
