I am a working mom.. trying to juggle work, school, housework, and still have time for my family.... I'm just so tired after a long day of work, I just don't want to do anything. I just want to sit down and relax.  But with dinner to be made, laundry to be done.. it seems like I never get just a minute to sit down.... most times I never get it all done.  It just seems like a revolving door of stress and work!

 

Are you a working mom?  How do you juggle work with the rest of the things in your life? Do you have a certain routine that you follow?  Ler us know what your secrets to success are!

I stayed home with my daughter for the first few years of her life, and then I joined the workforce. When she was six, I went back to school full time and occasionally worked two part time jobs to make ends meet.

It was chaos, but I managed to juggle it all by making sure i found time for myself and time for my daughter. It kept her from feeling like I was never there. I also talked to her about why i wanted to go school, and her understanding made a huge difference.
