Tee shirt from here |
Yesterday instead of getting straight on the computer as soon as we picked the girls up from school I sat and did some work. I got a little bit done - not much as we were all watching Dumbo and I had to snuggle my sensitive girl during the sad bits. But I also got the tea ready at a reasonable time, tidied the kitchen, made the lunches for today, sorted some recycling and hoovered the floor - mopping is for another day. I am very busy with work stuff at the moment so the house stuff is slipping and it is driving me mad as I just don't have the time to sort it all out. So I am thinking that between 3.30pm when the kids get home from school and 7.00pm when the kids go to bed, I won't even pick up my computer. I can do work as long as it's not computer work. Sound good? I think so and so does my sofa in the dining room that is drowning under a huge pile of clean clothes that are waiting to go away!

mmm know what you mean. Trouble is I try and crack on with some housework and tidying in the morning but by about 9.30 I just cant rest resist checking emails and Ebay and then I slip on to blogs and facebook and then the morning is gone.
I need more willpower !

Good luck with your new rule! I'm also trying to get into some kind of routine (my children are 11 months and 4 years), I am due back at work in a few weeks so going to have even less time to fit everything in - the computer and "blog-land" are very good as sucking you in - I've been catching up on blogs for about an hour so far and should probably actually be asleep!
I think I need a rule like that too! Seems like I sit down at the computer for "just a minute" which turns into an hour far too often.
