Re: A Woman’s Work is Never Done !

See that is the problem. Who said they needed to be folded or they need to be in neat piles?
This is how you delegate laundry.
Dump clothes 4 weeks old in Laundry.
Add enough detergent to kill a elephant and all that fungus on your clothes.
Take clothes out of washer and place in dryer.
Take clothes out of dryer and dump on bed.
When in need of specific item take out of the dump on bed and use.
Ironing optional.
I think I just cut out 3 hours from your day.
EGGsactly…

As per above advice you are not Training the kids properly !
The elder one should have learnt to cook 3 course meals by now and the younger one should know how to do the laundary and iron !
TLK should be able to zip in from work to do the dishes and vacuum and make chapatis while he still works 9 to 5 and is impressing the bosses at work !
U need management classes Nikki
Child labor

Why don’t you just open a new thread in Life1
But coming back to the original topic, yes women wear many hats. I guess most women are designed like that. Before I got married I used to struggle with the idea that I would have to take care of a husband and work as well [which I did at the time], but when the time comes, you adjust and everything falls into place. Then before having kids you’re like, will I be able to handle a child? Then everything falls into place. We have enough time in the day to do it all as long as we know how to prioritize.

Have I missed anything or is there more ???
How do you guys shoulder all that responsibility , day in and day out ?
Do you have a plan of action ??
How do you guys do it ?
I feel completely overwhelmed by the thought of all this !

Sehrysh is right…delegate delegate delegate!
Get a housekeeper but dont tell your husband about it. What he doesnt know wont kill him.
Ghar saaf, you’re not exhausted, husband khush and you have more time with the kids!
Problem solved!

EXACTLY.
u say everything so much better than I do
And it goes for almost every situation I think…eg, I used to think I’d commit suicide if I wasn’t working or going to school. and well its been a while since I’ve done neither and I"m alive.
