[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Single mom here. I've always been a single parent so it doesn't bother me to do everything. I triage everything. If you've ever seen the Eisenhower grid, that's how I run my life. Here's a link if you haven't.

Everything I do falls into a square and I work from it. I put it on the fridge and add/delete stuff with a pencil. Guess what usually gets neglected the most? Cleaning. I have come to peace with the fact that my house will never be all clean at the same time.

Funny enough is that my son has ADHD. I do not. I'm the exact opposite. I use that grid to keep myself organized. Last year, my DS took an academic support class for 9th graders with ADHD. The teacher taught the students in the class to use the same grid for schoolwork, chores, etc. My son said, "My mom has that on the fridge!" Teenagers never want to seem to listen to their parents but he uses it now for school.[/quote]

Sh*t, that is kind of genius!!![/quote]
