Do you schedule "me time" into your day or is it spontaneous, your routine is different every day?
Although parts of my schedule differ by the day, Monday to Friday any time I get for myself is late at night, once everything else is done. Usually 9 or 10 pm. Weekends I try to get some during the day, too.
What is your favorite thing to do on a weekend?
If no one is complaining or being negative (a big ask with 3 teens), I love to spend time with my family. I'm not that picky about what we're doing as long as we're together. Other than that, I love having down time for scrapping, crocheting, or whatever else I want to do.
Is your "me time" spent scrapping or do you have other hobbies too?
For years it was nearly all spent scrapping (while listening to audiobooks). In the last year my homework and some family stuff have sapped all my mental energy, which means I'm reaching for mindless things like my crochet project or YouTube videos instead of scrapping. I'm hoping things will turn around this summer!
Do you find it difficult to find "me time", is your schedule very busy? If so, with what?
Yes! Family, grad school, work, lately soooo many appointments connected to the kids (doctors and other people for some health stuff my DD is dealing with, school appointments as we do some testing and decision making for my 17 year old son with disabilities)
What is your nightly routine, after dinner? Do you get to relax a bit?
By the time I clean the kitchen from dinner it's usually 8 or so. After that there are usually a few things on my must-do list, usually family related. Then I sit down at my computer, but I have to start by checking emails since I probably didn't get to those all day. By the time I get through any replies or other actions, it's 9 or 10 and I can have the rest of the evening to myself.
