[quote=Anonymous]I go for a 20 to 30 minute run first thing in the morning (7am ish). If the children are occupied in the house, they can stay home with DH. But, if they want to ride in the stroller or ride bike next to me, they are permitted to do so. So on some days it's not alone time, but it still works as me time. I also found that segmenting the work day in to longer sections (which it seems like you are already doing) really helped, instead of trying to bounce back and forth between kids and work every hour, which is what I was trying to do to have the illusion of being on all day. That way you get get actual work done, and maybe have 15 minutes to check your personal email at the same time.[/quote]
