I thought was a B*TCH for running my house EXACTLY as you just illustrated. After fifteen years, I feel TOTALLY vindicated. ROOOOOOOOCK ON! I especially love the part about only one activity per day. I have been doing that for years, and other **ragged** "super" moms always strained to make me feel guilt. Never worked. ;) WhooHOOooooo!

Never worked. ;)

I only have one child at this time, and one planned activity is generally all I can handle. Although I have to say that it's good for me to have that one thing to look forward to (esp. when you're a new mom). What I like about this list is that it's simple and helps you to live in congruence with your priorities. Number 5 is a great tip!

I have an 8 month old son, and my day revolves around 7:30 am, 10ish am, 3ish pm, and 8ish pm....baby wakes up, baby goes down for morning nap, baby goes down for afternoon nap, baby goes down for the night. :) I never schedule appointments for the hour or two after nap-times...other than that, my schedule just sorta flows. :) I absolutely love this website, and just about every article I read either gives me a new idea or totally strikes a chord.

I love to hear how others keep their lives in a routine of some sort. This is definitely getting copied and handed out to several people that I know who just can`t get organized. Excellent tips.

I too try to stay home as much as possible and only plan one or two items per day. It keeps things simple, the children and I are much more relaxed and I spend less! LOL. Great ideas!
