As a single parent, it is important to do something for you.
I know it seems that there is so much to do there isn’t time for what you like to do. However, it is very important that you carve out some time for things you like. You can use your journal to come up with a list for you. Include on your list, hobbies, time with friends, time alone as well as time with the kids.
After you have completed the list, create a schedule to do them. Doing this keeps you from burning out. It also models to your children how to care for themselves.
Here’s a few of mine:
Read a good book when the house is quiet
Paint watercolor
Play the guitar
Watch a favorite movie
Dinner with friends
Going to the park with the kids
