Last day of Winter Break. It was SO nice to have a two week period of time away from “day job” work. I say it that way because “a mother’s work is never done” – I certainly have been busy and working during break.

Somehow T is able to just disengage and relax. Is mine a woman’s lot? Or just how I was wired?

I did read recently that when having tasks to do, especially on a weekend or other time when you *could* conceivably be working the entire time, it’s good to put a time limit on the tasks so you remember to rest too and they don’t bleed into everything. The risk is, without a limit, you may be thinking of the tasks even in free time. And then none of the time is actually free. Good advice!
