I'm not someone with a very active lifestyle, but I'm not the laziest either. Today I caught myself thinking that I didn't clean the house yesterday because my daughter and son and I were using Baidu Zhidao, plus I didn't have time to cook anything and we had delivery for dinner. And I have a question: how do people get everything done? Take one to school in the morning, pick them up, cook and feed lunch, clean, do laundry, iron (someone has to do it, right?), do homework with the older one, then get everyone together for a walk, feed them dinner. And don't forget about yourself. How can all this be managed? In moments like these, I remember a phrase that used to really annoy me 😂😂😂 'I choose myself' 😂 I do one thing a day 😂 either I go for a walk, or I cook, or I clean. I'm a terrible wife, but a happy mom)

I let a lot of things slide. The important things are lessons and classes – those are a must. Food can be store-bought, or dumplings/pasta save the day.
Cleaning is done based on how well things are going. Plus, the kids help with some of the cleaning. And my husband does a lot around the house too.

Why try to get everything done?
These aren't the most important things in life!
You didn't clean because you went for a walk with your children, but you spent time with your little ones!
If you have the chance and the time, you can clean. If cleaning is the priority, then no walk.
It's okay if something doesn't get done, the work will still be there later.
So, relax!
And by the way, having dinner delivered after your walk is wonderful! By the time you've bathed the kids, dinner is already served! Perfect!

I'm pretty much the same, and I'm really enjoying motherhood right now.
Last time, I also tried to do everything perfectly, but who really cared? 🤷️
My ex didn't appreciate it much 🤬
Now I do what I want and enjoy it 😅 I wish you the same – don't stress about it 🤗 especially if you have the chance.

Irina Working people also cook, do laundry, and iron (well, depending on who you ask).

Routine, discipline, but I clean once a week, and I cook when I have the energy – in the morning or at lunch, but I might do it in the evening too, as long as I'm in the mood )))

I don't even try to keep up anymore) The boys do their homework themselves, I manage to cook (when I don't feel like it, delivery is welcome!) but cleaning is harder. For me, the main things are food, walks, activities, and swimming with the younger one. Cleaning comes after. It's not like the house is a disaster, but I might skip mopping the floor, for example. My vacuum cleaner runs twice a day and picks up, but not as well as I would. Also, I don't immediately put away clothes from the dryer.

how I managed to do everything: long walks, homework (it was first grade!), and cooking.

My definition of 'getting everything done' involves much less: cooking is the priority, and the rest is broken down into smaller tasks, so there's no need to do everything in one day. I usually spend no more than half an hour a day on chores: I clean the kitchen one day, the bathrooms another... When a 'task for the day' is small (like vacuuming or mopping), I might wipe down surfaces or put away laundry. The washing machine just starts in the morning if the basket is full, and I can hang clothes throughout the day when I have a few minutes. Honestly, it all takes little time if you don't procrastinate! I even manage to cook something quick and simple and do laundry between night shifts (it's not a strain, just because I have enough time). And, you need to involve the family in chores too)

Pozdnyakova Yuliya Agreed, the main thing is not to get distracted) and not to get stuck on your phone. When you put it away, you get so much more done

Pozdnyakova Yuliya I guess I'm very old-fashioned (which I'm usually happier about than sad about)), but I don't understand how a phone can be distracting)) I turn on the radio on it and do my chores while listening to music). For movies/books/everything else, I have my laptop, and I just sit down with it when I'm done with everything)
