Hi, i hope that didn't offend :) heres why... i am a stay at home Mum! I am asking because i would like to know how you pass the day to give me some ideas how to pass mine. Weekends are spent looking after Nanna & catching up on housework. DH works 6 days per week 8-5
I have one DD at Primary school aged 10 two boys age 4 & 2.
Heres my daily routine which i stick to religisouly (I have anxiety issues with time/structure) However i want to break free of this and i need ideas.
Kids up at 6.30 - (Their choice not mine) watch tv for half an hour until we all waken up.
7:00 - Get washed & Dressed
7:30 - Everyone eats breakfast
8:00 - Get kids ready for school/pack lunches/ go over a few things.
8:30-9:30 - School run
9:30-10:30 - Visit my Nanna & get her dressed help her with breakfast (I have a toddler with me).
10:30-11:30 - Tidy up from breakfast/do laundry
11:30 - 12:00 - Play puzzles with my DS
12:00 - Make and eat an easy lunch for me and DS.
1:00- 2:30 -DS goes for a nap & I tidy up & study for a diploma.
2:30 - 3:30 - School run.
3:30-5:30 - Help the kids with their home work/make dinner.
5:30 - DH comes home/gets washed changed/ we all eat dinner.
6:30 - Tidy up from dinner
6:30- 7:30m- Play with the kids
7:30 - Kids get a bath & get ready for bed
8:00 - Kids go to bed
8:00 - I get a shower & do my hair
9:00 - Lie on the sofa watching catchup tv/ study some more.
10:30 - Go to bed.
Disclaimer:- While do this i am also taking care of my toddler who is needy and never wants to leave mummy not even for one second & also trying at some stage to read to him/play when i can.
Also two Tuesday mornings a month we spend the morning at my friends house. I live way out in the countryside the nearest village is 10 miles away, where the kids go to school. Theres not much to do around here apart from play in the garden & theres only one toddler group which belongs to a church to far away.
So on paper this might seem like i am passing the time. Heres my problem i feel so bored everyday. I feel like i don't do enough & that i am not achieving enough each day.
Id really appreciate it if you could give me run down of your day so i can see if am doing this right? or if i should be doing more, its a bit like groundhog day around here.
Thanks :)
