for some yrs my own mom used to wake up at 6 or even earlier, wake us all up, get us all ready, get ready herself, make our breakfasts [which included special farmayshein of my bros, like anda aisay tala hona chiahiyay and doodh mein malai nai etc etc, me being so sweet bachpan se hi halo never had such nakhray] and put them on the table, dad used to go to job, mum used go to her school to teach and we used to go to ours. we’d be back by afternoon, change from school uniforms [read, my younger brother and i did masti around the house and stole imli from the fridge] and then mom n dad used to arrive. mom used to take lunch out. then she used to clean it all up etc. then we all used to nap. mummy used to go wake up and teach tuitions till late evening and saath saath cook dinner n the next day’s lunch. we used to go out to play. then when her tuitions left, she would take out the dinner, dad would be home by that time too. then we would all eat. mummy would then ask us if we’d done our homework etc, make sure our school clothes were ready etc and then put us to bed.
and in pakistan cooking means making roti, chawal, daal, saalan, cutting salad etc. and it all starts from scratch from goondhing aata to peesing lasan adrak on the stone thingie. [mom dint used machines coz she thought machines make em lose their khushboo]
we only had one safai wali maasi who only used to clean the floors and bathrooms of the house and do dusting.
im the only girl in the house and was too young to help out and even when i was older mummy only asked me to wash dishes and sometimes pees the masala or goondh aata and dust one room per day and iron my bros and my clothes. she wanted me to concentrate on my parhai so she never made me cook the actual meals or do heavy duty housework.
hmmm…moms r just superwomen 
now alhamdulillah we have domestic help and they do almost everything. but that also means k mein ne tab bhee koi ghar k kaam nai sambhaalay aur ab bhee nai.
but the point of the post is k how do they or any women for that matter do it? i discussed with my friends who work too and most em including moi dont do any housework. its nothing to be proud of actually it sucks coz when we r forced to do it its gona take some getting used to. i dono how it is in amreeka where u dont have domestic help but here atleast we r really spoilt and come home n just watch tv, sit on net, or do our own thing. even sleep or watch a movie or whatever it is.
the married ones do a lot, i guess when u have ur family in front of u and u know they r ur responsibility, then u forget all tiredness and illness and just do things for them.
like my bhabi had bad back pains, an operation, but in that she used to do so much, and mashallah she has 4 kids, i was just A.M.A.Z.E.D.
sometimes i’m scared if i’ll be able to manage everyting coz i’m like the laziest person on this planet
khayr just a salute to all these kinda superwomen 
plz enlighten me how u do it
let me handle the housework of my house myself
