Hi. I’m sorry if this is in the wrong area.
This new year I want to transition from work to home on a more fulfilling way. I get home around 530 after a full day. After my husband or I make dinner I would like to spread this out throughout the week. (We are doing a daily rosary at 9pm.)
Spiritual reading, exercise for 30 minutes, trying to find out how to spend time with teenagers.
Does anyone work full time with teens?
How do you balance coming home after a full day to domestic duties, personal enrichment and time with family.
I’m doing it day by day and we’re doing good but I like to learn from others who are there now or have been there.
I look forward to going home but I don’t want to neglect t talking to my teens because I’m immersed in a book. We have a great relationship with them and they’re great kids. We all usually gather together when us parents get home, we hang out a bit, talk about our day. Then they go back to their rooms and around 630 or 7 we see them again for dinner. Sometimes we play a board game which is so fun. Other times they eat dinner later. My husband and I get into house mode, chat and we have an 8 o’clock reading hour.
Maybe we’re doing ok. I was just curious about how others manage their routines.
Thank you and God bless.
