Routines and Much More



While the kids have settled into their own routines, I found myself doing the same things on a regular basis as well. Before, I had no schedule at all. I would do the chores whenever I feel like doing them. I used to do the laundry 2-3x a week and I would iron at least once a month. I am quite lazy when it comes to ironing compared to my love for washing the clothes. Now, I do the laundry once a week and it's scheduled on a Friday instead of Saturday so I can spend more time with the kids during the weekends. The ironing is now also on a weekly basis and I can get it done faster when the kids are in school. The other chores are also accomplished when the kids are not home.

Settling in my own routines gives me a whole lot of time for the kids and myself too. I blog, watch TV shows and movies online during my free time. I now sleep way earlier than I used to and I guess that has given me more energy during the day. It makes me more determined to finish my daily tasks no matter how simple they are.

Included in my weekly schedule these days is giving my daughter her regular manicure and pedicure every weekend. She loves having pretty nails and now that she goes to school, they have to be perfect. Last week's color was red, it's blue and purple for this week, mine is pink and what's yours?  Let's all have a colorful week ahead everyone :D
