Somewhere between the school pickups and the meal planning, the thing you used to do just for yourself quietly disappeared. This is the case for taking it back: why one small, protected hobby steadies a person carrying a full household, how to defend twenty minutes against every reasonable interruption, and what to say when guilt tells you it is selfish. Practical encouragement for staying a whole person while raising others.
