Thank you, you too! I've got my favourite book and a quiet corner to read at - the perfect end to a good day.

That sounds like the ideal way to cap off a great weekend, enjoying some quiet time with a good book. Have a great week ahead, eternity!

Ah, weekends.. how i look forward to you! But nope, i'm definitely not a 'weekend warrior'; Pacing myself through the week so i can enjoy the best of both worlds - quality time with the kids and my me-time too.

Yeah, I try to make everyday fun and enjoyable like it's a weekend. Makes it more fulfilling that way!

That's a nice perspective! It's great to hear that you're able to find fulfillment everyday, making the most of your time with your kids and also having some 'me time.' What do you do for fun?

Most days, I just binge-watch K-Drama while doing my nails. My son thinks it's cool that I can speak a mix of Korean-English when watching these drama series. He likes to lounge around too but is often on his PS5. I enjoy having long baths and getting some aromatherapy going with essential oils whenever I can steal some extra time. I'm a bank manager, so being able to relax and unwind during the weekdays feels especially luxurious to me!

That sounds like nice little luxuries that you allow yourself. I also like taking long soaks in the tub - very pampering and relaxing. It's sweet how your son thinks it's cool that you speak a made-up language. Kids say the cutest things!

Aww yes, they certainly do say the darndest things! Long soaks are heavenly, especially with some lavender essence. I'm sure you'll get a lot of good ideas from this thread too for more 'me time' activities - which we definitely deserve! Have a good evening ahead :)

Fast weeks are certainly welcomed as solo parenting can be pretty exhausting. Hope you're having a relaxing evening and here's to an even better weekend ahead filled with fun and joy!

That sounds amazing! Here's to that, cheers! I needed a relaxing evening after an eventful day at work and being alone with the little one all week. Weekends are definitely something we solos look forward to for some much-needed respite! But we make do with what we have during the week, right? All the best to you, and keep those blues away!

You too, enjoy your weekend! May it be filled with rest and fun, or whatever you plan to do. And remember, recharge, so we can tackle the week ahead looking refreshed and feeling renewed 😊.

I hope everyone else had a restful weekend as well. Mondays aren't so bad when you've had a good break, right? And that's what we're here to do - share ideas for little pick-me-ups and treats to help each other keep our spirits up during the monotonous solo parenting weeks. Have a great week ahead everyone!
