Mom can’t find time in the day for herself

DEAR HARRIETTE: I’m a wife and mom, and I work full-time, which means my days are busy from the moment I wake up until I close my eyes at night. With getting my kids ready in the morning, working all day, handling dinner, helping with homework and household responsibilities, it feels like every minute of my life belongs to someone else. For 2026, I set a goal to start running. It’s something I’ve wanted to do for years — not to train for a marathon or change how I look, but simply to have something that’s just for me and to feel healthier and to have more energy.
