As a mother life can get super hectic day to day. When you add in running a home, running a business, taking care of a parent and other older relatives and it is any wonder I still have my sanity. What I have learned over the years is how to take a little time just for me. It can get tricky but it can be done. The bathroom has always been the best place to get some me time and now that I have Angel Soft® with Fresh Lavender Scent in there it is even more wonderful.
Everyday I take at least 10 minutes to just sit in the bathroom (the family thinks I am taking care of other business) and just regroup. Sometimes I just take a hot shower with all the light off and a few candles lit. Sometimes I just sit on the toilet (with the lid closed) and just breathe. I take a book and just take a few minutes for myself.
It really helps me keep things together and while I know the bathroom sounds like the worst place in the world to do that it actually works. The bathroom is the one place where I can take a few minutes without everyone bothering me all at one time. Now that the Angel Soft® with Fresh Lavender Scent is in there the whole room just smells so inviting and relaxing. They give about 10 minutes and then little hands start showing up under the door and I get the “¿Qué estás haciendo?” Which is my cue that it time to come out.
Another great way I get some me time is to actually wake-up before anyone else. Doing this allows me to spend a little time getting myself ready for the day mentally. I say my prayers,meditate, exercise, and do other things that I just won’t have time to do once the day begins.

I live in a small Georgia town that you most likely have never heard of and I LOVE it! My house is more than full as I am a single mother of four & caregiver to my aging mother and uncle. Lover of all things Outlander. Goes to the beat of her own drum woman.

You sound just like me. The bathroom has always been my escape. When I was in high school if I needed to study for a test I would lock myself in the bathroom. It was the only quite place in our house. I still find myself escaping there even now. I bet the Lavendar scent has a calming effect.

I need to start spending more time in the bathroom so I can have a few minutes to myself. My son is attached to my hip so to speak.

I think the bathroom is every Mom’s escape, lol
Tina says
I use to do the same thing. I found often it was the only room to find a minute of peace. I loved lighting candles and just calming everything down for a minute or two.
Rita says
It really is the best room in the house.
