[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you escape to the gym "for a couple of hours" every evening after work and still have time to parent your kids? Unless you work part-time, I would think an hour would suffice for most people in your situation. If money isn't super-tight, your options include ordering take-out/pre-made meals multiple times a week, get a housecleaner a couple of nights a week, hire someone to help your kids with their homework, or spend less time on your own career. Something has to give if you're single parenting most of the week.[/quote] I typically go during their sports practices, which are right after school. I often debate between using that hour and a half to stay home and catch up, or to use it for “me” time like I’m doing. [/quote]
