OK, so this will shortly be my day:
Commuting & school run: 4 hours
Work: 6 hours
Park & helping with homework: 1 hour
Cooking, preparing lunches & general tidying up: 1 hour
Running my small business: up to 3 hours.
That doesn't actually leave any time at all for anything else, does it? DH can't really help as he works more hours than I do. But I can't do it all. Money is a bit tight for us right now, but I am hoping things will improve.
I can't afford to get a cleaner in every day, so… I am thinking of employing a range of different household gadgets to take the pressure off. This is my list:
Roomba
Dishwasher
Tumble dryer (so I don't have to iron)
Slow cooker.
Is there anything else? I would love to hear from other stressed working mums about ways that they have reduced the workload also.
