I don't know what others do, but I'm feeling on the losing end of the battle lately. I don't want to be the scatter-brained mom whose kid doesn't have her homework done or the permission slip in on time, but I've been guilty of both of those just in the past few weeks. The girls' bus has been coming 5 minutes early all week (road construction temporarily changed the route) and that has thrown me way off in the mornings, which were the only time that I actually felt like I had it (mostly) together.<BR/><BR/>Ok, sorry for the complain-fest there... But it's definitely a struggle. Especially right now when we're gone in the evenings so much too and soccer is now eating up most of our Saturdays as well (which is when the bulk of the housework was getting done). I checked Abby's backpack this morning and she had notes in there from last week - shows how long it's been since I remembered that particular task... Sigh.<BR/><BR/>I have found though that no matter how much time you have, things always come up to fill it...<BR/><BR/>Thank you for the reminder about using the crockpot - it helps so much and I've got a meal I've been planning for weeks in it that I keep forgetting about. :)Deb - Mom of 3 Girlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03806252705199445407noreply@blogger.com
