If I don't have inner balance, no one is going to receive the best of me anyway therefore, I come first!<br /><br /> I'm not married and my daughter is grown so I don't have the type of responsiblilities that you do.<br /><br /> Juggling family and work is a task and can take the focus off of the individual self which can also create a loss of inner balance.<br /><br />Perhaps going to a library for a few hours a day or on the weekend; just to get away from everything; luch breaks at work,etc.<br /><br /><br />Personally, if I was married with children and had a project or something to do that ment a lot to me - I would share that desire with my husband, and children and request that they participate in providing me with the time to accomplish my goals; that way everybody rearranges their time and schedule to incorportate me; after all, that's what family is all about and I think it can produce a strong family value in children.<br /><br />I hope it all works out for you, Misha!

But working in blogging, while working full time, AND making time for my personal writing...well, I'll be happy to share any bright ideas (if I get any!). ;-)<br /><br /><a href="http://minalobo.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Some Dark Romantic</a>Mina Lobohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10173895884776280826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5190412120537448720.post-37765177360427841412012-05-09T03:01:54.671+02:002012-05-09T03:01:54.671+02:00Good luck with the writing time.

She sets an egg-timer and does nothing else.

A break during work?I'm wokring on something for writing. My daughter is taking a few extra minutes eating dinner? Instead of hurrying her, I'm taking a few minutes to write something then I hop on mommy duties to hurry her from the kitchen to get ready for bed lol!! Perhaps I've become a time thief, stealing the time when and where I can.Angela Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03324366495151363782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5190412120537448720.post-74593913793580986542012-05-08T18:24:39.887+02:002012-05-08T18:24:39.887+02:00Oh yeah, don't look back at the time wasted......Oh yeah, don't look back at the time wasted...that will drive you crazy.

Give yourself permission when writing time avails you. It's okay. I have four kids and two ill parents to care for. The hubby works constantly, leaving me to run pretty much everything on the home front. When I started writing seriously three years ago, it was a major upheaval for my family. Still is. But I've grown, learned to take it all in stride. I will get there. And so will you. ;DS.A.
