The Many Hats of Moms
Something I struggle with (and I’m guessing I’m not alone here) is the quick change hat act that us mothers have to do on a sometimes minute to minute basis. Your kids need you! Get the mom hat on. Partner needs you… where’s the devoted wife (or partner) hat? Business? Find your work o’holic hat. House disgusting and company on the way? Martha Stewart hat. Sometimes all these quick hat changes leave me with a major headache. How about you? I don’t even know where I put my “me” hat. I think I last saw it around Mothers Day. Well, I decided to give myself a few days off of this vaudevillian quick change act. In two weeks I’ll be spending the weekend in Tahoe on a women’s retreat. Locked away in a cabin in the woods for two glorious days, alone with my “me” hat. No wife hat, mother hat, employee hat, etc… Just me, myself and This will be the second time I’ve been on a women’s retreat. The first time was about ten years ago. I found it to be a much needed break from life and in the end, made me a much better woman under all those hats. How do you recharge? Find your own “me” hat? Or do you? 0 comments from 0 users
