We give our own kids ‘time out,’ but when does a Theta Mom get hers? Where is our transition time? So, as a fellow Theta Mom, I decided that we need a time out, so I am launching “Time Out for Theta Mom Thursday.”
As a Theta Mom, we are always everything to everybody else and there is barely any time left for ourselves. This is the old cliché, so I challenge you to find one hour within one week to do something for yourself. Go ahead, give yourself a time out! You deserve it!
Maybe you want to spend an hour getting to that work-out that you never started, or return to a creative project you have put on hold. Maybe it’s going for a long walk outside, catching up on a good book, or getting a long over-due manicure. Or perhaps it’s catching up with a friend over coffee or enjoying peace and quiet in a bubble bath with a glass of wine. Pamper yourself and make time for yourself! However you spend that hour is up to you but it must be something that you find enjoyable (cleaning out closets does not count)! Finally, it must be time spent without the kids.
Every Thursday, I will post how I spent my one hour of time (in the last week) and I want to hear how you spent that hour as well.
Let’s do something for ourselves for a change. Make arrangements to spend that hour and give yourself a break. You deserve it Theta Moms!
This challenge is so on!
Mine would have to be extra time in the shower using an aromatic body scrub. I think mango-apricot is the choice of the day. . .
I love it! I so need a time out after this full moon! LOL I would love to take an uninterrupted bath, that is my time out. Am your newest follower from MBC! Love the blog!
Good idea! I so wish I had a way to figure out this time out for mommy!! Been working on it for months now! LOL

I completely agree usually during my lunch hour I am trying to get errands done, grocery shopping, online banking etc. so I can get home to my little one as soon as possible after work BUT every two weeks I treat myself and just get a mani/pedi for me time.
Wait…we're supposed to have "transition time"???? Well darnit! lol
Nice to meet ya!
This is a good idea! I found my time already today
Thursdays are the perfect day for time out for moms. So this Thursday I am meeting some friends for a quick bite, a drink, and some adult conversation.
