Mum of 3, works full time (I think) but always looks absolutely FABULOUS and so friendly and outgoing.

i am unorganised and I would love to be more like this.

not sure what I want from this post but just wanted to vent!

I have come to the conclusion that people like this 'tidy as they go' rather than leaving things to clean up later.

Not only their houses but their lives, their work and their appearances.

I am trying to train myself to become someone who tidies as I go, but it is very difficult.

I guess I only see a snippet. She just always looks amazing, great clothes and friendly to everyone but you are right, I don’t see behind close doors

You can bet she'll be dropping balls somewhere along the line! Perhaps her house is a shit tip. At the very least she'll have some really untidy cupboards and I bet she doesn't wash her skirting boards very often.

Unless of course she pays someone else to do it! Maybe she has a fabulous Nanny and a cleaner and ironer etc etc. She is probably in the minority though OP so don't feel bad!

I know someone like this, she is absolutely lovely, such an interesting person, fun but sensible with three children and working full time in a really excellent job. She and her DH have two sets of grandparents very locally who help out, which helps. But also she just has a naturally lovely personality and is intelligent.

I think it’s down to your support system. If school mum was doing it alone then something would have to give.
