[quote=Anonymous]Make it a month of self-care

I just listened to the audio book, How to Raise an Adult and one of the last chapters was all about self-care.  As I read your post, I thought about connecting these elements to you.
It is not going to be perfect - but each day you need to prioritize the 3 things you need to do that helps you.   Is it a run, an afternoon nap, a long walk, watching an episode of Shitts Creek.   Write it down and make it happen.

Can you find a place to get out of the house for lunch or doing a bit of your work each day?

What are the things that your MIL enjoys?  Can you leverage that?   Does she love to bake?   Can she bake something special each day with your kids?   Can you ask her to help with making dinner for the family a few times a week?   Can she teach your kids how to knit? Paint? Embroider?  Garden?  Iron?

I find when I have music that I love on in the house - everything is a little better.   Get your playlist going[/quote]
