my kids r 13,12 n 8…my father is staying with me too…
i woke up at 4.30-5 am to cook lunch for my family…
household chores r share among us
lucky for me…my husband is the type that can do marketing n help in household matters…
to make my cooking a ‘faster affair’…as i need to leave house by 6.45 am…
i bought
-iona roaster(like air fryer)
-pressure cooker
-thermal pot
others
-stick vacuum
i need to replace my blender etc too
i am thinking of getting a dryer?
i have 1 mth more to get my timings right before the school reopens…
reading the stories here somehow ‘motivates’ me and ‘get some ideas’ to shorten the time of doing housework\cooking… -
Hi linayh, you can also try getting a robot cleaner to clean your floors. That will free u more time to do other chores.
