my thoughts, they distract me all the time
I do time myself, actually. I don’t do breaks larger than 5-10 minutes.
I usually start doing something then one of the children needs my attention, or I’ll start reading the news and fall down a rabbit hole - yesterday I ended up buying a new computer game. Don’t quite know how I went from reading about Boris Johnson to playing planet zoo but there we are! I’m on maternity leave at the moment, so it’s quite easy to get distracted!
Instagram reels…LOL
The biggest source of distraction for me is cute cat reddits, haha.
For me as well
definitely gadgets and social media
You must use a timer? I find that if I don’t use tools for distractions, I’ll just endlessly be scrolling or doing whatever it is that’s distracting.
I hope you enjoy your time off! I have many mom friends and they say that time literally just zips by! So I think you quite well deserve to be distracted!
Better than Tiktok?
Drop the subreddit!
Not really, I just throw a look at the PC or my cellphone clocks occasionally.
Thanks, I ended up extending leave because of lockdown. I should have been back this week!
Good! Must feel nice! How long did you extend it?
