Can you remember the last time that you had a smooth day? The kids slept in late, they were a little less messy at breakfast, they played well with each other while you washed the dishes. We all dream that everyday could be like these rare days. I have discovered a few little secrets to a smooter day and I am going to share them with you.
1. Clean the living room and kitchen the night before. This will ensure breakfast goes much smoother.
2. The night before laundry day seperate the clothes into loads and place them in baskets. It will make the wash load look less intimidating. And you will have a basket available for the dryer load.
3. Prep for dinner the night before. If you defrost you meat and season it the night before when its time to start dinner all you have to do it pop it in the oven and move on to the sides.
4. Prepare the kids clothing for the entire week on Sunday night. Whether you oversleep or the husband have to dress the kids you know everything will be under control because you dont have to search for anything to wear. Shirt, pants, socks, under shirts and shoes they are all in one place.
5. Relax, Rome was not built in a day. So many times we put our self on these Marathon days. Pace yourself, do what you can and the rest can wait. You maybe in luck the hubby may be in a good mood and complete the task for you.
This list is going to help me, even though all my kids are grown and gone(almost), organization is what I need for the processes in my life.
