Stay-at-home mothers need to have at least a small break every day, especially if they are also single. Taking care of our children is the most important job that we will ever have, but to do this well, we should be able to take a break each day so that we may relax and get our thoughts together. If you are lucky, you can do this while your children are napping or at school. But this is not always going to be the case. Taking five minutes to yourself a few times a day will not hurt anyone, especially not children. If you teach your children to play quietly in their rooms for a bit each day, this will be a huge help to you. Children can usually be taught this fairly early on. So, if you only have five minutes a few times a day to relax, how should you go about doing this? Try these ideas: * Sit outside with a glass of iced tea and enjoy nature. * Sip coffee while reading a short article. * Watch a couple of music videos. * Do your nails. * Talk on the phone with a friend. * Check your email. There are many other ideas that you can incorporate into your alone time. I especially enjoy writing in my journal while I am outside. What you will do will depend solely on what your interests are.
