As a busy mom juggling the two different schools my daughters attend, scouts, Awanas, serving on the PTO, owning my own business, and finishing up my bachelors degree, believe me when I say I have absolutely NO time for the extras!
One thing that gets neglected at my house the most is cleaning. The laundry grows on a daily basis and the amount of paperwork that I get is ridiculous! Now please do not read this and think of the show Hoarders, but I will admit there have been weeks when I have not been able to find thing buried under the mountains of paper piles on the table and I have worn socks for a few days too many. This is where my love of the Wii comes in.
I am not a fan of having the tv 'babysit' the kids but the Wii is an interactive game that promotes exercise by the kids (they love to dance to Just Dance) and also gives me about 2 free hours to catch up on housework. Without the Wii I would have no time to clean on Saturday mornings. Thank you Nintendo!!
What is your saving grace to help you catch up on housework?
My saving grace = Merry Maids
ReplyDeleteI do laundry and empty the dishwasher... that's it.
The friendly crew comes every other week and scrubs my home. One of life's simple pleasures.
