Logic tips 101 for Anal
1. There is this thing called a slow cooker. It's a magical invention. You prep your food ( Morning, Noon or Night) , swoosh it into the pot, turn it on, walk away, and viola a HOT dinner for the evening time.
Imagine that Anal!
No cooking at mid day and re heating food hours later
and time gained to spend with your kids.
2. See that big huge garden you're blessed with, grab the paddling pool in the shed. Plonk three dogs at a time into said paddling pool. Grab the hose.
Have fun with the kids and gnome washing the dogs down outside, no mess, dogs can shake off, and you saved some of your ever precious time that you lack so much of.
Imagine that!
3. Now that you've saved at least another hour off your 'timetable', you could play with your kids.
You know, those annoying little people that need attention in real life.
You'd be amazed at how their moods change and their temperament change with the extra bit of attention and interaction.
4. Any of us that have watched you over the years know you never got up at the crack of dawn like you do now.
Relax and chill out a bit in life.
That extra time you would have instead of cooking mid day could be used to work out or walk with the kids or dogs for excercise.
There's no medals for getting up before the birds and showing the gram your sweaty face.
You gain literally nothing from it?! Nada! Zilch!
Instead of going to bed at the same time as your kids, stay up and clean up so the next day you've free time. Or watch a program with your husband. Or talk to friends on the phone. Or sit in your office and do your Ocado shop in peace.
Or enjoy the peace like most of us parents do when the kids go to bed. You're doing it all backwards.
You're trying to gain peace and organisation when the kids are up and in your face.
Do it all when they're in bed.
Bingo!!!
