Hello lovelies!
I am a part time working mum, and I do loads of other stuff in my 'spare' time. So I'm looking to set up routines and strategies that will help me run the home reasonably well without dropping dead of exhaustion, or throwing up my hands and living in squalour.
So what strategies / routines / tricks of the trade are your lifesavers? I have started menu planning and doing a weekly internet food shop. I have got a 5 y o dd and a (very messy) 3 y o ds at nursery school, and a rather messy dh. I cook every night and do most of the housework, although dh does lots with the dc and baths them every evening. Dd has severe eczema and food allergies so I have to cook everything from scratch and wash her clothes more frequently than otherwise (because of all the cream!) So that gives you an idea of my life!
