Time to Reorganize!

Everyone hits that wall at least once in their life ... some of us it is many times. That wall that says STOP! You cannot do this anymore! You need to re-think your day ... plan it out ... prioritize ... delegate!

Yup, this busy mom has hit that wall. My house is clean (not organized, but clean), my children are fed and cared for, we get to the activities, and I get my work done. HOWEVER, I feel like I am losing my mind and I am definitely NOT getting enough rest.



Here is where I would LOVE input from my readers. I have looked at Busy Mom's Guide to a Happy, Organized Home

Has anyone read it, used it, anything? I have also been on Pinterest a lot lately. Checking out ways I can organize my WAHM life a little better. Anyone have any favorite pins that they have tried?

Currently, my schedule looks like this:
7am - everyone up
8am - kids to school, hubby to work
8am to noon - breakfast for the littles, TV and imagination time while mommy organizes work for the day.
noon - lunch
12:30/1pm - nap time for the littles ... mommy cleans and does small quick work.
3pm - little ones up ... snack time and fun time with mommy
5:30pm - outdoor time
5:50pm - get kids from bus stop
6:00 - 8pm - get dinner done/homework/outdoor play/baths
8pm - two littles go down and older kids start reading time
8:30pm - all kids in bed and I finally start work.

I normally don't finish my work until about 1:30-2am. Willow hasn't been sleeping great and hubby and I have tag teamed overnight. I should add that Mondays and Wednesdays we now have activities (Allegro and Tae Kwon Do) and then we are throwing in Cub Scouts and Activity Girls as well.

So ... have at it in the comments. How do you other busy moms do it?
