Yep! Take yourself out, Mama.
Do you ever go out alone? Impossible, right? NOPE!
Here are some pretty easy and cheap ways to get out of the house and have a quiet moment!
- Schedule it. It won’t happen till you make it happen, Mama. Get it on your calendar and unless someone is sick/bleeding/dying, stick to it! Having something to look forward to on your calendar is huge motivation.
- Hire a babysitter. Text your most reliable babysitter and ask if she can come over for 2 hours. That’s enough time for your kids to nap or watch a movie!
- Swap kids with your friends. She watches yours while you go out and next time you watch hers while she goes out!
- Ask a family member or your spouse to watch your kids. This is easy – just ask. And like I always say, it is not weak to ask for help!
- Do something that fills you up! Go to your favorite coffee shop, go to the library, take a walk outside, exercise, take a nap, go get a mani/pedi… the point is to do something that will fill your tank instead of drain it!
Take the steps to do it this week! Whatever you need to do, make it a priority.
I would LOVE to know where you take yourself! Please tag me @mamaneedsbox on insta or fb when you go!
