Why so busy???

Really am baffled why we always feel that there is so much to do and so little time? I mean we are not the only one who have a dog, work, no maid etc but why issit that i see our friends having the leisure time to go for coffee sessions, shopping trips or outings when I can hardly finish all there is to do.

Weekdays we reach home between 8.15-9.30 usually. Whether or not I cook or we do take-outs tabao-ed meals and walk the poochie, the clock always read 10 - 11pm when we finally get to sit down on the sofa for a breather. Then we have to shower and get ready to bed between 12-1am. So on weekdays there is hardly anytime to squeeze in washing/cleaning or shopping other then a quick zip to supermart once a week.

On Friday, as I do not work on Sat, I will do 1 load of washing out of 3 (light colored, dark colored and towels). The man will help to vacuum/mop the floor. We are almost always the only ones home on Friday nights based on the emptiness of the carpark!

Sat morning whilst the man goes off to work, I will start the other load of washing :
  • 9.30am - Load washing machine
  • 9.35am - Ironing
  • 10.35am - Break of 10mins to play fetch with poochie
  • 10.45am - Hang out washed load
  • 11.15am - Prepare food for the next week such as making soup stock, marinating and chopping up meats
  • 12.30pm - Wash both toilets (ya unglam!)
  • 1.00pm - Wipe surfaces and if nec mop the floor again
  • 2.00pm - Man comes home =)
Who says 5 days work weeks means happy weekend? I seem to do more on the Sat half day then those who goes for the 1/2 day work in air con comfort =(

Remainder of Sat and Sun will be spent on errands, home-visit to ma and pa, poochie outing to dog run and poochie training class. And another week is gone.......
