Over the past few weeks I’ve had some down time on the blog. Not deliberately, but due to me not balancing things very well at all. I’ve been trying to revamp my business and promote my Christmas promotions as well as look after a poorly baby. It’s been quite tough but it’s given me some time to have a think about where this blog is going.
I decided after reading over my past blog posts that even my blog isn’t as balanced as it should be. Of course Miss P takes up a huge amount of my day, but I do do other things too 😜.
Juggling everything is pretty tough but that was the main point of my blog. To highlight the struggles, successes for example. So I’m starting a new feature on my blog which will hopefully keep me centred and balanced.
How do you juggle everything you need to? Do you throw yourself into something and neglect other areas of your life? I’d love to hear about it.
The Mummy Balancing Act 
Sometimes I wonder how I juggle everything but I’ve learned to pace myself more and when I need to rest to try and do it 🙂 I love forward to reading more from you x

I schedule a lot of things, I have too with working full times, being a wife, having 3 cats and housework to do. So things like Facebook, Twitter and some G+ stuff is all automated and some of my posts are scheduled weeks in advance, more so if I know I am going to be busy and I also schedule tweets associated with that post too x

I used to be good at the social media scheduling, but that’s fallen by the wayside sadly. I must get back on it x

Juggling is hard with little ones. I don’t know how we managed when ours were small but I worked outside the home and having time away to do my job and have some me time helped me focus on taking care of the kidlets when I was home. A supportive hubby helps bunches, too!

I neglect the cleaning all the time. I am just so busy with my blog, or running around after the kids that tidying the house seems to take a back seat

Same here. I am thinking a good cleaning schedule might be needed to maintain it so people can pop round without me having a panic attack

I have 4 kids, 2 at school, 1 at preschool in the afternoons and 1 at home with me, I have started setting time aside for each thing that needs doing on the blog in the evening, also once a week (whichever is to be my quietest day that week) I do a get s*it done list and me and a friend check in with each other at 3hour intervals that really helps! x

I love the sound of a get s*it done list! This might need to be a feature in my life for sure!

I have to prioritise. Children then blog. That’s about it! I don’t have a man to worry about and I don’t have time for housework!! I do need more balance too. Kaz x

To be honest I am lucky with the man I have. He does what he can. It’s me just trying to cram it all in

Tidying takes the back seat in my life too. I need more than 24 hours a day.

That would be fantastic!

I adore the quote/graphic that you chose for this post. I often look back after a few anxious/”off” days and realize that I’ve been neglecting something that makes me feel good. I’d love to offer tips on keeping balance but instead I’ll just be keeping my eyes open for your and everyone else’s advice because I feel like balance is something I struggle with CONSTANTLY! I’m always throwing myself into something while neglecting everything else!! And then playing clean up.

Really lovely post. I’m sorry to hear that you have been through such a tough time. I usually find a nice hot bath and an early night in my fave pjs helps me destress and writing 🙂
