I have the lights off, Inside Out is on Disney+, my husband is still at work and my son is asleep.
Every day I have time to myself but I'm always doing or thinking or going. Much like any other adult or parent or person. That is usually in the morning on my drive to work. Once I get to work, though, there's no stopping and that goes on pretty much until I pass out that night. Again, much like any other adult or parent or person.
Here's the important thing to remember, no person, at least no person that I know, can keep that level of constant "on the go" be it physical or mental. It's so important to take some time for yourself. Call it work life balance, call it self care, call it whatever you want. Take some time for yourself. Whatever that might look like; time to invest in yourself through reading, watching a movie, writing a blog, taking a class...taking a quiet moment.
