Do you manage without a house help?

How?

I do everything, cook, clean, shop, water the lawns and plants as well as take care of a disabled adult child AND I run a profitable business from my home office.

It is all about efficient time management.

@Threepio how do you do that? How many hours do you spend on your business per day?
@assemblingaknob I am a master of making lists the night before and then attacking them first thing in the morning (6 AM usually). Working from home helps as I have no commute.

I typically work about 6 hours per day on the business, but it is broken into little chunks throughout the day.

The secret is efficient time management AND to keep moving.

@assemblingaknob I clean house on the weekends. Obviously I do the dishes and clean the kitchen during the week but I have weekends off, so Sunday mornings is whole house cleaning, it takes me a couple of hours (including laundry in between tasks)

@JimboSaturn that is when the bulk of my house cleaning happens as well. It’s terrible when we get a busy weekend, I feel like it ends up throwing the house off for the week lol

@NewRaven Some weeks in the summer when I'm doing a lot outside stuff, I don't clean the house. I just suffer a dirty house because I would rather be doing tasks outside.

@Threepio what's your business? Bookkeeping?
@Shadyglow I own a business that supplies materials to hobbyist's.
