      Any tips?

      Ha Ha ....
      Not So Much On Tips, but they have Figured out that the Sooner Mum and Dad Vent out their Frustration, the Faster they Can Continue their Gaming, etc ....
      And The Fastest Way is to Keep Quiet, and Don't Talk Back ....
      πŸ˜† πŸ˜†

        Yes yes, I'm beginning to notice this new trend in my dd1 too. Maybe she's now older so become slightly wiser, finally can catch my pattern.

        After I yak yak yak for 7 to 8 minutes and she didn't respond, not used to the complete silence, I asked her why is she so quiet? From her past track record, if I utter one sentence, she should theoretically rebute with 3 sentences.

        She said she expected to be scolded so just let me vent. I got over it very quickly anyway :faint:

              2yrs back, when i grew bored, i took up driving.
              1yr back, when i grew bored, i shifted out from my ILs place (ok....not really grew 'bored'. :evil:)
              this year, my ds2 learning piano, something new to me as a parent, so that is keeping me interested. and i spend my free time prowling the net for free level-apt scores and learning techniques.

                    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)
