I make time no matter what for pedicures and getting my nails done every other week. It's "mommy downtime" and I take a magazine and just relax in the chair and let someone else take care of me..I'm always taking care of my 4 kids and hubby...it's a nice return for me. I get comments from other moms who say "How do you have time to get your nails done?" I make it a priority...my sanity. If you don't schedule time for yourself, no one else will. You have to have a date night with your hubby, and time by yourself several times a month. It has made for a wonderful marriage, and a happy mommy and wife! My hubby and I also trade off on the weekends and let each other sleep in while the other takes care of the kids. We usually only take an extra hour, but it is so nice to not have to worry about the kids and just sleep till you feel like getting out of bed.
