Before anything else, I just wanted to flex my article "My Birth Month: Setting New Goals" that I published yesterday.
Being a full-time mom makes me busy. There are lots of things to be done in a day like washing of clothes, cleaning the house, taking care of the kids and because of my busyness, there were times that I forget to take care of myself.
But as time pass by, I learned to divide my time but still, sometimes I feel like my time isn't enough to finish all the things that I need to do in a day. And because of that I do multitasking just to get finished those tasks.
What keeps me busy every day?
House chores - At the start of the day, I already set many things to finish on that particular day.
House Chores that I did
Cooking
Washing of clothes
Cleaning outside and inside the house
Arranging our clothes in the cabinet
Cleaning the garden
Taking care of the kids - As a mother, it's always our priority to make our kids safe and healthy. Preparing food every day, teaching them some little works so that they will learn something even at a young age. What I teach them is to wash plates, fix their clothes and beds, and do some cleaning like sweeping the floor and dusting the cabinet. It's just light works for they are still young.
Modules of the kids - Since this pandemic happened, face-to-face classes are not allowed to ensure everyone's safety so they implemented this modular learning so that kids can still learn even they are at home. Every two weeks, I went to the school to retrieve the modules and get a new one. Guiding and explaining to them about their modules requires a lot of patience coz there were times that they can't understand even if I explained it many times.
But despite my busy days I still allotted time to earn extra money online. I know this will add more to my busyness but as a mother who wanted to earn for my kids, I still pursue this one. It's not easy at first but after many weeks, I get used to it.
How am I able to publish an article a day?
Writing an article a day is very challenging for me, from thinking about what topic to write and jotting it down needs a lot of time too.
While waiting for the rice to be cooked in the morning, I started to draft my article already, then I need to stop when it's time for us to eat our breakfast. After eating our breakfast, I still have a few more minutes to relax to digest the food that I ate, and so while resting, I hold my phone and continue drafting it.
After 30 minutes I had to save what I write coz I need to wash our clothes. It takes one hour before I can finish washing and hanging the clothes. After doing it, I had to rest again for how many minutes, then continued the drafted article that I save an hour ago.
But then again, I need to stop coz it's module time. Explaining what to do is the first thing I did. When they get what I have explained to them, they will answer the questions in their modules. I am eyeing them until they finish answering that certain topic that I teach them.
After the modules, it's time to prepare for lunch. While preparing the lunch, I also continued the draft I made, and sometimes I finished it that time but if I don't, I just resume it in the afternoon when the kids are taking their naps.
I am too busy, right? But even so, I am still proud of myself that I am still here today standing strong and healthy. As long as my kids are happy, then I am happy too.
Our kid's happiness is our happiness too.
