Comments on: Ideally finding the time… http://ideallyspeaking.ca/2011/09/ideally-finding-time/ Parenting and life in general from my point of view. Mildly naïve & wildly idealistic.

I could tell you what worked for me but I don’t think you want to go that route. Hubby seems like a pretty stand up guy, so getting divorced is probably not an option you’re looking for. (however, it DID mean a lot of me-time.. every second weekend. I call it my consolation prize)

Letting go of the guilt is a difficult thing to do, but it’s better to feel a bit of guilt for taking time for yourself (because although mom is an important part of who you are, it’s not all you are) than to feel resentment for NOT having that time to yourself.

And it DOES get easier as they get older. It won’t be forever.
