sure, most of us are busy most days, between work, doing stuff for family members such as laundry and cooking and ferrying kids to places they need to go such as soccer or piano...
what i am wondering is how do you save time in doing your everyday tasks? do you cook meals ahead of time? eat out a lot? enlist a cleaning service? car pool your kids?
of course i get my kids to pitch in and my hubby does all the cooking and i do all the laundry related things here at our house, but i still find on the nights that the girls have lessons or kids clubs at church, life is still crazy hectic...

When you stop to count the hours and hours a week you spend on housecleaning and the stress you feel when things aren't up to par, you may come to the same conclusion I did...HIRE HELP! I have more than ten hours a week I can pour into more fulfilling activities than I would if I was still cleaning my own home. I can't afford not to have help. The peace of mind you'll feel when you come home to a spotless home is invaluable! If you find the right person, they might even do your dishes;)

Normally I only do what I need to do.
If I do all my work then it cuts it out for the next day and so on and that saves time (in the end) I also prefer to have slow days where the times precious and I have more fun not worrying running around having a lot to do.
Some steps can save a lot of time. I still waste a lot of time but I have more for my son and family and that all that matters.
