Wait a minute.....bored?? :scratchhead:
I seemed to be always busy (with what I really dunno :gloomy: ) and rushing daily....till sometimes, I am so fedup. :stupid: Now I'm wondering where did I go wrong or I'm simply inefficient?? Can you mommies help share some tips?
My schedule:
6am - wake up get 2 kids ready for school.
6.45am - drop hubby at MRT and & send kids to school
7.20am - home and breakfast, flip newspaper a little
8.15am - send MIL to work and do marketing
9.30am - start all the chores - sweep and dust, mop & wash toilet (alternate days), general cleaning, laundry, cook lunch & prepare dinner ingredients etc
12.30pm till 2pm - lunch, bathe....and out to fetch 1 kid
2pm - give lunch to 1 kid, clean up.
3.30pm till 6.30pm- fetch another kid, have teabreak with kids, cook dinner, quick mop, slot in a little coaching if possible etc.
6.45pm - dinner time, eat, wash etc etc etc....
Plus still need to cater for coaching, ironing & all the misc things.....where to slot in BOREDOM??
And on 1-2 days when both kids have CCAs till 5pm, I slot in all the weekly chores.....
Ladies.....do share your trick. -

You really seems very very busy.
My shortcut is ironing, mop floor n wash toilets once a week ( out source to part time maid) -
cwc you are really diligent to mop twice everyday! Can just use the magic clean dry wipe on alternate days?

CWC!
dedicated mummy,wife! :salute: -

Used to...then I realised I'm killing myself, so only mop hall and rooms on alternate days or 3 days sometimes. But for the kitchen will mop as long as there's cooking.
Have done away with daily vacuuming and sweeping cos' time consuming, only use magic dry wipe every day which is faster..... Maybe the area I stay, it gets quite dirty everyday.
Also, MIL likes to leave tissue on floor and tend to drop her food. But my main grouse is she has a bad habit of not drying her hands/feet.....so things will stick on floor and dark patches will form :stupid: So gotta mop loh.
In fact, have already cut many corners cos' simply too xiong. My threshold for dirtiness is getting higher and higher :oops:
