Power Hour



I like to think I'm an organised person - I do a weekly meal plan, I do my grocery shopping online to save time and the days I work I cook tea the night before or put something in the slow cooker that day.


However, come the weekend it kinda goes out the window a bit. I get up early both mornings and head off to the Gorge for a hike or go for a run - that's my hour of me time, the rest of the weekend is taken up with swimming, playing, catching up with friends etc. so come Sunday afternoon once Oscar goes down for a nap, I'm like a women possessed.


Take this afternoon for example I did washing, got it in and folded it. Re-arranged my wardrobe. Packed some orders. Did general housework, Cooked Banana & Sultana Muffins. Baked and Orange cake and now finally Ii'm sitting down to a glass of wine, while a Roast is cooking away in the oven.


How do you fit everything in on the weekends - family, friends, housework, cooking etc.? Are you last minute like me or are you SUPER organised all the time?

  1. My life is like your weekends! Although I do shop online (because who can be bother shopping with two pre-schoolers in tow) and on work days I often know what we'll be eating for dinner. Other than that - I'm all over the shop!!

  3. I like to think I'm an organised person but when it comes to around the home, I'm really not. There is never enough hours in the day and I don't have kids yet - eep! My weekends are filled with gardening, shop stuff, renovating and catching up on weekly chores, as I'm usually exhausted during the working week to do too much.

    It's hard fitting it all in. I like my routine, now school has gone back and its just me a boy 3 home, we will be much more productive and organised. Have a nice weekend Ange :)
