Answer

Mediation always helps me. Journaling, exercising, listening to a funny podcast, music. I like to read self help books.

Answer

Absolutely preaching here hun! Life before kids was chaotic let alone after 😂. 
I have found planning out my week and the family meals has really helped me. So on a Sunday I will write on the whiteboard on the fridge what we’ve got on that week (baby classes, family visits, swimming etc.) and then I will plan out the kids breakfast, lunch  and dinner (including the adults too!). Then I go food shopping for the week. I’ve also managed to cut our weekly food bill down by £80-100 (I live in the UK). 
I also make sure that I get in some form exercise; usually a walk with my earphones in and a murder podcast (yes, I’m one of those people 😂). When the baby has her naps, I look to doing something I want to do such as reading, knitting, napping even. 
It is hard, and has taken me a while to adjust but planning the week out has really helped me

Answer

Reading, journaling, exercise, taking a walk, yoga, dancing, singing, karaoke, pampering yourself, painting, your nails, your toenails, taking a bath, exfoliating, putting a treatment mask in your hair to make it softer, you can do facemasks,  ￼they have recipes online. Make up tutorials. Play games online. Catch up on your shoes. Bake. Cook. Decorate. Organize. Scream into a pillow. Hair style tutorials. Etc

Answer

Walking helps me. If you have a double stroller I'd load them up with snacks, water, and whatever they need to entertain themselves, put on your favorite music and get busy. Exercise helps with serotonin and dopamine. I do it before work with my little one and my entire day is usually always better than the days that I dont. Just a light suggestion. Lol.
