you need to talk to the other ladies on the fly thread..

really helpful to get together routines of what needs doing - from that you could redistribute jobs to a rota for other family members - if that is what you are thinking.

Thanks this is very helpful, on each day I have daily jobs, and then on each day of the week I have a job that needs doing once a week or fortnight.

Want to get on top of the household mess, and this way I can also see and tick off what I have done each day.

I have also put space for lunch and dinner each day.

I am really determined to get organised.
