[quote=Anonymous]My advice is to be kind to yourself and let something go. So you're living out of laundry baskets. Can you outsource some to the house cleaner or DH? Get the kid involved in it. My kid's clothes aren't folded as nearly as I would like, but they put them away themselves. That IS a lot of time in activities, but you say it's non negotiable. Use that time to place your grocery deliveries or smaller work projects. Sure part time or an au pair or grandparents would be nice but for many of us it's not at all a possibility. DH needs to step it up. Laundry, dishes... And the kid is capable of a lot too - wiping down counters and sinks, light vacuuming, cleaning up clutter like shoes. [/quote]
