Are you feeling the chaos of the holidays? Maybe you're like me and have fifty-leven kids. I mean three sure as heck feels like fifty-leven sometimes. Somedays are enough to make my head spin. Throw in the extra [joyful] chaos of the holidays... Elf on the Shelf, school parties, family get togethers, the absolute insane amount of energy the kids at this time of year have. I always say I wish I could bottle up their energy and sell it because I'd be a gajillionaire. But I digress, as ADHD often has me do. Tune into this episode if you're looking for ways to survive this holiday season. I'm a mom of 3 under 5 (4 year old, 2.5 year old, 8 month old) and it gets coo-coo for Cocoa Puffs around here. I'm talking all about what I'm doing to make it through with quick and easy self-care activities. I'm talking less than 20 minutes a day people. And reminding you that even if you only have 2 minutes for self-care, it's better than ZERO! Lots of love mamas!
