Caring For Mom Herself
MOM’S VIEW MOM’S VIEW says it’s the “home of the most supportive community of moms on Planet Earth.” And not only that, but “the most frugal moms on the net.” And it is a remarkably good site. Its message board puts moms in touch with others with the same problems. The site has gathered an outstanding group of coupons and other savings, links, and helps of all kinds. This one is top notch! A SOCIAL SITE FOR PARENTS Social sites are all the rage nowadays. MINTI is a social site for parents. They say, “Minti is about advice, friendship and community for parents. Join for free, get your own family page, keep a blog and make friends with other members. Advance through the Minti ranks by contributing parenting advice, blogging and writing comments.” SINGLE PARENTS’ NETWORK They say, “Our mission here is to provide a hub that has collectively gathered single parent web sites, articles, information, goverment resources, online discussion forum support boards and so much more.” http://singleparentsnetwork.com/ THE 20-MINUTE POWER NAP It seems there’s been a lot of study on this – and, of course, the nap doesn’t need to be exactly 20 minutes. The 20-minute power nap is used “to supplement normal sleep, especially when the sleeper has accumulated a sleep deficit.” Now who could that be, I wonder? The ABOUT people have their usual excellent article on the subject: http://stress.about.com/od/lowstresslifestyle/a/powernap.htm And, if you scroll down the page, you’ll also find much good information on dealing with stress. SLACKER MOM A former Type A Perfect Mom tells why and how she relaxed. “Basically, I don’t sweat the small stuff. I’ve cut myself some slack and realized that good enough is good enough. I have a life outside of my kids and I’m a better mom because of it.” Read more:
