I have a question... How do any of you get anything else done in the house
with having the kids there all day? I need to clean out the freezer, washing
the windows outside.... Do you just include your kids in these tasks (then it
turns a 1 hour job into a 4 hour job) or what? I can't do all this stuff
when they go to bed as then I need to work and although hubby does most of
that kind of stuff, I'd like to do some of it? Or are is all your time
completely with the kids? My best friend asked me the other day "well how
are you suppose to get anything done" and I didn't have an answer for that
except to say "I';ll take them with me" (we were talking about going to the
bank, groceries store etc, outside things)... Then today I realized I need to
do lots of things around the house... Am I just being overconcerned about
having the entertain them?

Feedback would be great...

What do you do now? Apart from having a window-cleaner and
doing the absolute minimum (our freezer got cleaned out when the
plug got unplugged by accident and I had to throw £30 of food
away, ewww, it was rank!) I just kind-of get on and do. They do
their bit (like now, or not...) And I work sometimes during the
day too. It depends how engrossed they are in what they're
doing. Though sadly, since we sold our old house, Ive been less
inclined to get involved in what they're doing, depression,
exhaustion and habit, a foul combination...
