Posting for traffic! I'm an LP with very little support.

What tips / products / lifestyle changes might make life easier?? What do I need in my life?

I know it's hard without any background about me (I could bore you with the details but not sure it's necessary!), but I am just wondering what makes your life that little bit easier...?

@MumofBoysx2 The Organised Mum Method. Have a look on her blog, Facebook etc

Don't put off until tomorrow what can be done today.
Get washed and dressed as soon as you are up.
Packed lunches: easy sarnies: ham, cream cheese, egg mayo, tuna, etc. Make weekly and freeze. In plastic bags in a box in fridge place: drink, fromage frais, satsumas, (cherry toms or small bag dried fruit). Empty into lunchbox and bung in frozen sarnie to keep cool. If you are really organised you cpukd bung a handul of salad stuff into the sarnie.

My dishwasher. Co sleeping. Getting the kids to help with chores. Oh and don't start an NHS degree until they are all in school (maybe I should need my own advice).

The organised mum method = tomm.

Hard to comment without knowing which areas you find a challenge.

For me, I've noticed a big impact from:

Dishwasher
Cordless vacuum
Cleaner
Ocado
Permanent to-do list on the go, plus paper diary
Decluttering
Getting out of the house to work
Earlier bedtime

@Neverender

What about colours running into each other?

Thanks Winter :-)

Online grocery shopping, a cordless vacuum and a spray mop are things I've recently invested in and they've made my life a whole lot easier!

I invested in all of these this year too!! And with the online shop it's quick to whizz through favourites to reorder your usuals.

I used to forget to put the dishwasher on before bed sometimes, so now I use the delayed timer which I set at teatime for 4-6hrs later, and if I forget the last couple of drinks cups then it doesn't matter, the rest still gets done.
