I can´t get everything done, what should I do?

Get Your Priorities in Order

Prioritize and compromise. Do the most important things first. Are clean clothes more important than spotless floors? Then skip the mopping and do the laundry. Save the mopping until next week. Try to do grocery shopping every other week rather than every week. Alternate home jobs so you are not doing the same thing all the time. Do what¡¦s most important first and schedule the other things on alternate schedules. Do not try to be "Super Parent". It is impossible and you will find yourself burning out quickly. You are not expected to be perfect, so relax and enjoy life, not just endure it.
