Hiya, hope you dont mind me posting here im not a single parent but my oh is in the army so only home 1 in 3/4 weekends (late friday to early sunday) if lucky.
I have been a SAHM since May because trying to find work around here is tough especially to fit around childcare and dont get much hep from family, so all the things i used to enjoy like my job (working with racehorses), horse riding (had to sell him) even just being able to take the dog on a decent walk or go the gym i cant do anymore.

Its tough seeing friends who have partners who come home after work or are there on weekends so they get to enjoy a bit of 'me' time :(

What do you ladies do for yourselves, if you do ?
 
nothing usually when the kids r away a catch up on housework, its really hard to get time to urself and do things urself there is always stuff needing done,
 
I like to take lots of pics and then get them printed and when Isabella's asleep I spend time putting them into photo albums and into my little record book for Isabella :) also like sorting things out in my room, making to do/buy lists, cooking and having a face mask and bath and do my nails now and then :) x
 
My brother comes round to keep an eye on LO when she's asleep at night while take the dog out for a good walk (he does that a couple times a week) other than that I don't get any me time, LO is starting to go o child minder in January and I will be starting at the gym and taking the dog out for a walk with my bike so he gets a decent run
 
I've been an army wife and now a single mum.
Some help is far better then none.
But at night when/ if my boys go to sleep when I put them to bed I like to go for a relaxing bath, watch my programs I've recorded in bed, when they aren't here in the day, I very rarely get to be child free I do housework. It's impossible to keep a tidy house when uve got two boys running wild.
It's the little things that keep u sane lol
 
When I get a spare minute I knit and crochet baby items and photography props and sell them.usually it like 10 minutes here or there though . Don't really have free time
