Hi, my dear readers,
If you’re a single mom like me, you probably wait all week for the weekend — not to rest, but to catch up on everything you couldn’t do Monday through Friday. The laundry piles up, the errands never end, and suddenly the “weekend” feels more like just two extra workdays.
But what if we flipped that?
What if your weekends became your reset time — not just a to-do list, because you need some rest, not working all the time. Here what can help you:
☕ Meet Up with a Dear Friend
Spend time with that one friend who lifts your energy, makes you laugh, and reminds you who you are beyond just being “Mom.”
Grab a coffee, take a walk, or sit and talk your heart out. Real connection heals more than we realize.
You’ll be surprised how much you’ve been holding inside — and how comforting it is to hear that your friend is going through her struggles too. No one’s life is as perfect as it looks on social media.
So my advice? Stop scrolling. Step outside. Connect with real people and real moments. 💛
🛍️ Buy Something Just for You
No groceries, no cleaning stuff — this is about YOU.
Grab a cute top, a scented candle, a new lipstick… anything that makes you feel like a woman who still loves life, not just someone checking off chores.
You don’t need a ton of money to treat yourself — just a few bucks can bring real joy.
I’ve always believed every woman should have her little happiness — something just hers, not tied to kids, family, or anyone else. Because truth is: you can’t pour into others if your cup is empty.
So go explore, spoil yourself a little, and remember — you deserve it and you should do it. 💖
🍿 Rest in Bed with a Feel-Good Movie
Yes, mama, you’re allowed to be lazy.
Pop some popcorn, throw on your cozy socks, crawl into bed, and binge your favorite movie (or three). The world can wait. Whether you’re into drama, action, or romance, my go-to is always a good comedy. Nothing beats laughing until your cheeks hurt and feeling that little spark of joy again. Let the chores wait — seriously, they’re not going anywhere. You’ll get to them. But right now?
Just relax and let yourself be. 💆♀️✨
🎨 Explore a Hobby You Love — and Maybe Earn from It
Knitting, writing, designing, baking, blogging… whatever lights you up, go for it.
Use the weekend to play with your passion — and maybe start planting the seeds of a little side hustle. Just for fun (or maybe for future freedom). 💸We all need something new to fill that space inside us — something that’s ours. Don’t wait for someone else to save you. You’ve already made it through hard days. You’ve survived. But maybe… you’re just tired of surviving. It’s time to shift the perspective.
Start building something that brings you joy — just for you. So think about it:
What sparks your interest? What could be your thing? Start small. Stay curious. And hey… it might just grow into something beautiful — and profitable. Why not? Who knows, right? 😉
📝 Why I Started This Website
I created this website because I wanted to share my real-life experiences — especially the struggles that so many single moms go through every day. 💬I joined the Amazon Associates program and I always pick products that I truly believe in — things that can make your life easier, your home more beautiful, or your you-time more special. 🕯️🛍️ No, my earnings haven’t been what I expected… but the connection I’ve made with you — the sweet messages, the support, the real stories — that’s worth more than I ever imagined. 💌 If you want to support the site, you can do it just by choosing one of the specially selected products. Every little bit helps — and I’m so grateful. So go ahead — start something new.
A new activity. A new lipstick. A new you.
Stay kind to yourself, keep trying new things, and remember — you’re doing better than you think.
Stay safe and happy until my next post! 💕
