Anyone else feel overwhelmed on a Saturday morning?

[noautumnglow]

Realised I feel like this every blooming Saturday morning when I realise how much I have to do.

I'm a single parent and I work full time, so almost every minute of my time during the week is taken up with working or sorting children out. By the time I get to Saturday I'm already tired but have a massive to do list. Today's is: hoover, clean bathrooms, laundry, mow lawn, scrub ink stains off carpet, wash kitchen and bathroom floors, food shop, walk dog, sort out home admin, tidy porch, clean kitchen, etc etc.

I know these are things everyone has to do. I'm just having a moan. I hardly ever have time for us to go out together as a family as all this life shit just gets in the way.

Any advice?

I think it is just the way it is for many parents when they have young dc.

I advise lowering your housekeeping standards a bit and repeating the mantra that it is only a phase.

Do the TOMM app and leave the rest at weekends

Well, funnily enough at 08.00 I'm at work.

I have literally posted the same kind of thread 10 minutes ago.

I feel your pain but I do not know the answer.
