Cheap and Fun Mom Time

Every mom needs to take care if herself just as much as she takes care of her family. Yes it is the easiest thing to blow off, but it will also hurt you the most to do so. This is the one area I really struggle in. So here are a few ideas to get you started.

1.) www.meetup.com is a great place to find a group to belong to. It is also a good way to find playgroups. If something does not fit you, make your own group!

2.) Have you husband baby sit and go read somewhere (park, coffee shop, etc) all by yourself.

3.) Arrange with a friend to meetup for coffee.

4.) Shopping by yourself. I love grocery shopping as long as I can leave the kids and husband at home.

5.) Work out. Most fitness centers have child care on site for cheap.

FALL CLEANUP CHALLENGE: Garage. We have a ton of stuff up for sale on craigslist, and just waiting for that to sell before we can put the finishing touches on the garage. My wonderful husband did most of the work while I kept the kids busy.
