Between your family life, social life and professional life, you've got your hands full. With so many people to take care of and things to do, it's easy to forget about the one person in desperate need of a break… YOU. Every Mom deserves (and needs) some "me time," so take this quiz to see if you've reached that breaking point and learn how you can go about getting some time to yourself, even if just for an hour.

Your morning routine usually consists of:
- Taking a hot shower to wake up, asking your spouse to start breakfast for the kids, blow-drying and curling your hair, changing outfits twice and giving everyone a kiss before they run out the door
- Waking up extra early to make a well-balanced breakfast, get the paper for your husband, call your mom to say good morning and make the kids' lunches
- Taking a quick shower, letting your hair air-dry as you make breakfast and get ready for the day

Your kids want a dog. You:
- Consider getting one, with the understanding that you'll be the one to take care of it, no matter what crazy promises they make today
- Suggest a compromise, like a hamster or gerbil – something low maintenance but cuddly
- Consider it, since you know your husband will be able to take on most of the work

When your girlfriends call to invite you out for dinner and a few drinks, you:
- Get super excited – but then turn down the offer because you've got a PTA meeting that night and a big presentation in the morning
- Immediately accept and suggest the swanky new restaurant down the street. Your mom should be able to watch the kids tonight, right?
- Check your schedule and promise yourself that you'll leave right after dinner to tuck the kids in. OK, fine, after dessert.

What is your skin care regimen?
- You wash off your makeup each night and use lotion if your skin ever feels too dry
- People actually have a regimen for skin care?
- Aside from weekly facials, you exfoliate each night, use pore-minimizing lotion and special age-protection cream

When your child asks to host a sleepover tomorrow night for eight of her closest friends, you say:
- "Honey, eight is a lot. How about you pick three and we'll plan it for next week instead?"
- "Wouldn't you rather just come with Mommy to get your nails done?"
- "Well… sure. Let me just run to the grocery store to pick up some platters and finger foods."

If you could have one day entirely to yourself, you'd:
- Sleep
- Spend the day with your spouse or catching up with friends, and spend the evening curled up with a good magazine
- Check out some new stores and spas in case you want to change up your usual "me-time" routines

When you take your child clothes shopping, you usually come home with:
- Just the essentials, plus one extra item if your child behaves… and maybe one irresistible top for yourself
- Some children's clothes, a few things for your spouse, a darling onesie for your new niece and a present for your co-worker's baby shower
- A whole new wardrobe… for yourself. Oops. But who knew there were so many sales going on?
8

Your last date with your husband was:
- Dinner at your favorite restaurant followed by that romantic comedy you've wanted to see
- A quick-but-sweet lunch date during the week while you both had some free time from work
- Uh, before the kids were born.

When your little one gets sick at school unexpectedly, you:
- Make sure you're home ASAP, chicken soup in one hand, thermometer in another – and the pediatrician's number on speed dial
- Call your neighbor to cover for you until 2pm, after the big sales meeting that you absolutely can't miss
- Explain the situation to your boss and offer to call into the big meeting via conference call while your child naps
10

How do you feel about coffee?
- I know too much caffeine isn't good for me, but I can't function without it.
- I'd rather run to Starbucks and grab a chai tea
- I try to avoid it, but some mornings, I just need that extra boost
