Hi MyLoteers - my life is decidedly disorganized at the moment.
I have a 7 month old baby and I am trying to study for a course, exams in October.
Before I had him, my weekly schedule used to revolve around work. My problem is that I have no real routine. Caring for my son is of course a full time job as is taking care of the home. I did work full-time up to the day I gave birth but am taking some extra maternity leave till around July.
Some people seem incredibly organized - please please tell me how you do it

Im far from an organised person but I have a very busy life and I do manage to keep it all going- just about. I found a website called
www.flylady.com
which I found good. Its a bit Americanised but has a lot of good tips about prioritising tasks and managing time. The biggest and most helpfull one for me was the decluttering your home section. I thought that would be an impossible task as Im such a hoarder but you do a few little bits day by day and suddeny you turn around and realise that your nearly there.
Have a look at it anyway. Even if there are only one or two tips there that suit you it will lighten the load a bit.
