making smart use of mom taxi in waiting timeAs children get older, but not yet old enough to drive themselves moms begin to feel a bit like a taxi service.

Some events you are going to want to just put all work away and watch others you are going to end up with a lot of sit around and wait until its done time.

If your spouse is at home watching the others, or the others are old enough to be at home alone this makes for an excellent small to large window of uninterrupted  work time or rest time.

Here is a few ways I make use of my mom taxi wait time:

1. I grab my laptop, a small folding table and a folding chair and either type away under a shade tree, or in my SUV.

2. I bring a long a book a blanket and a pillow and make a nest within my SUV to destress.

3. I might hang out in the facility itself and watch my children practice soccer while I chat with the other parents and work on my locker hooking or knitting.

4. I bring a list of a few nearby errands I could complete in the time frame.

Now its your turn to brainstorm how you could best use your time as a mom taxi in waiting.
