I don’t know about you, but this year, I want to get better at having a work/life balance. I love having the time in the summer to do things around the house, but struggle when the school year starts. If you have any tips, suggestions, or systems that have worked for you when it comes to planning, etc. I would love to hear your thoughts.

I try to allow a lot set amounts of time for certain tasks around d the house. I literally set a timer and when the time for a task ends. I try to wrap it up and move on. This method helps to avoid lost or wasted time.

I love the use of the timer. I’ve tried this strategy and it’s helpful.

I have this problem as well. I think I’m going to have to schedule chores for each day so I’m not using the weekends to do everything!

It’s nice to know that I’m not the only one. My summer to-do list gets out of hand sometimes.

When you plan, STICK with it!!!

Sounds crazy but once a month I'm hiring someone to come clean my house so that is not all I am doing on the weekends. I have a side business that takes up alot of my weekends so I leave all school work at school. If it doesn't fit into my week I look at it the next week. I found I would spend all weekend on my sewing business and school work and no time for myself.
