Too often as moms, we end up working split shifts -- leaving at 5 pm to pick up the kids and hopping back on after they go to bed. How many nights did you do this week? How does that affect your overall well-being?
Building off our boundary setting from yesterday, try going black for tonight. Turn off email notifications on your phone until the next morning. Don't open your computer. Take a bath, read a magazine, call a good friend -- anything but work!
Then evaluate on Friday -- did the world crumble? If not, pick a night to do the same next week. As I always say - you deserve it!
