[quote=Anonymous]We use the ToDoIst app so little tasks don’t fall through the cracks. I find having all the to do things written down somewhere helps get them out of head otherwise I just ruminate trying to remember it all. Also, lots of Alexa reminders and a shared Google calendar plus a giant white board for weekly stuff.

We make a lot of the same meals (tacos, lasagna, “leftovers charcuterie board,” rotisserie chicken + veg, breakfast for dinner) on repeat so we don’t even really need a recipe to follow.

I either wake up early or use my WAH lunch break for exercise. I take care of personal tasks (like scheduling medical appointments) in between work meetings. Curbside pickup helps with groceries. I also make time to schedule myself at least 1-2 fun activities per month (book club, brunch with girlfriends, etc.) and a date night when we can so we don’t burn out.

It’s not perfect and I feel like I spend a lot of my life rushing. I forget what it feels like to do things at a leisurely pace. But we are managing. [/quote]
