Me Time For Mom

Hey moms! Are you tired? Are you missing fun in your life? Do you think because you are a mom, you are not entitled to enjoy yourself once in a while? Well it's time to think again, specifically, it's me time for mom! Listen, your kids are not the only ones who need playdates; you need to enjoy life as much as they do, right?

You know you've been working very hard and deserve to be waited on; enjoy a bit of pampering; and experience all of the delightful nuisances you remember before you became a mom. It can be me time for mom by taking the word "guilt" out of your vocabulary, and call up a friend or agree to go out on a date the next time he calls. After all, speaking baby for the longest time has worn you down, and you need to engage in adult talk for a change.

A little time for you is not too much to ask! Start with a me time for mom with a manicure/pedicure; buy an outfit you've had your eye on; and go out, even for a few hours. It will do you a world of good. By utilizing a proper babysitter, you can indulge in that which you have denied yourself for a long time. Take in a movie and dinner. If someone invites you out; don’t hesitate, just say yes. You're energy is depleting. After all, you have been cooking and bottle washing for how many months and years?

If you are married; now is the time to call up your friends and plan to see a show; a play; a musical. Spend a day with them at the mall to check out the latest styles, and then buy something whimsical. Maybe you would like to go with your friends to a spa for a full body massage, or a facial. Heaven knows you need the quiet and soothing calm that accompanies this treat. While your bobbing your head up and down in agreement, remember me time for mom has no limits.

Taking advantage of going out once every so often is a mandate to your state of mind. Rejuvenation is needed; and a different atmosphere is essential to your emotional well-being. It’s your turn now! One day out will definitely make a world of difference. Whatever your status; remember your kids aren’t the only ones who need playdates. Me time for mom should be a priority in your life!
