I just can't keep it up no matter how hard I try, no matter how much I try to get organised, it seems impossible to fit it in and build a routine.
I know there are threads like this from time to time so posting something similar is probably pointless but I really really needed to vent this evening.
It's 8pm and I have just sat down. This evening I still have to unload the dishwasher & reload with what's lying about, wipe my worktops, hang up a load of wet washing, fold & put away some towels and order a couple of household things online.
I really need to wash my hair, dry and straighten (impossible to achieve this in the morning as doing so would wake my kid) so I look ok for school run tomorrow on top of all the jobs above.
I really just want to sit down & read mumsnet & zone out.
I haven't shaved in weeks, my hands and feet are a mess. I've cancelled 2 hair appointments now so hair looks awful.
I did make it to a HD brows appointment this week but I'd previously cancelled that twice.
I used to look good!
I have a new baby arriving in the spring and really really want to build a routine now that I can hope to maintain with a newborn.
If you have preschoolers and still look reasonable please please tell me how you do it? From 7am - 9pm every day my life is kids, housework, cooking, house admin. How do I fit myself into that?
I try so hard and never succeed!
