PP - I'm a working mom of three, and these are some things that have helped me.

Scheduling medical/dental/ortho appointments on days off (with multiple kids together) makes life so much easier.

I  immediately scan or photograph important things, like completed forms, invitations, permission slips, or anything else likely to get misplaced.  I keep them on my Google drive so that I can access them anywhere.  I also have pictures of the front and back of our insurance cards on my phone - these always seem to be needed for permission slips and sports waivers.

When my kids were little, I kept a huge box of plastic spoons and another of forks in the house. As soon as a Signup Genius notification came through, I signed up for spoons or forks. They are easy for the kids to carry to school or take on the bus (i.e. don't get stuck in the carpool line because you signed up for a case of water). You can always go back and add something else later if you have time.

Each kid now has one of those three or four shelf storage towers for their uniforms. One shelf for jerseys, shorts, socks, etc.  Uniforms, INCLUDING SOCKS, go immediately from bag or bathroom into the wash machine and once washed and dried, go immediately into the storage tower.
