[quote=Anonymous]Go to sleep early. It seemed so counter productive to me when I started but it has helped so much.

My toddler doesn’t nap anymore, so when my infant naps she has “quiet time” in her teepee. I give her the iPad, put on music, and she stays in her room. I get 90 minutes give or take of uninterrupted work time.

Load of laundry a day. Seriously. Don’t even separate, use a Shout color catcher.

Look up Clean Mama and follow her schedule. I still have cleaners come for a deep clean but it’s easy to keep up when I only have to do certain things every day. And if I miss a day, not a big deal.

Alexa and Siri are my friends. Whenever I think of something, I tell them to set a reminder, then I schedule all of my reminders for the next day.

I sit down with my husband at the beginning of every year, every month, and every week to go over schedules. When he has an important call I take over and vice versa. We also plan meals so if we know it’s going to be a tough or long day, we do carry out.

Accept that some days will be a sh*t show and feel free to sit on the couch with a glass of wine. You’ll do better the next day.[/quote]
