      The peri menopause fatigue is no joke! I will say I started taking evening primrose oil and it did help me sleep better which in turn has helped somewhat with the fatigue, not erased it but made a difference ❤. Cleaning a school is ALOT so don’t be hard on yourself, you’re doing bloody well! X

    Utility room looked fabulous, very satisfying to watch. Also adore your bedding, stunning! I used to get so overwhelmed by the volume and mess in some rooms, I’d put off sorting them because the task felt so big and then it weighed on me for ages. Now, I’m in a place, where I’ve decluttered, I do the one touch method to and I just try not to think about tasks as big or small, just start and work in sections as I go, not looking at a whole room that needs a clean, just break it up into a few parts. You’re doing a great job, juggling a house and kids plus a doggie, give yourself credit, everyone’s happy ❤x

    I can definitely relate with the overwhelming feeling. Sometimes it’s just knowing where to start cause there’s that much to do. Your videos are so relatable. You’ll soon get back into routines once the girls are back in school. Thanks for the ‘taking a tablet tip’ you shared recently. I always struggle taking tablets and it worked a treat 👍🏻 xx

    You’re not alone, I have 3 kids (none in school yet either) and my husband is away for weeks, sometimes months at a time. Everyone says things like “the dishes can wait, the laundry can wait, don’t stress it” but I can’t imagine the added stress I’d have if my dishes and laundry were piling up and my house was a mess all the time. Sometimes I think a clean house is the only thing keeping me sane 😂

    I'm worn out just watching all you do😉. I used to be so fussy in my house, but as I've got older I'm much less so! Considering all you do with the girls esp when Lee is offshore during the school hols I'm not surprised you are getting tired now it's nearly the end. Start your decluttering when they back to school. I kept saying..turn that tap off when u did the utility😂.

      I always think (just an observation!) that I would feel guilty if I knew I was home whilst I put my kids in a holiday camp if I wasn’t working (like paid work) I would love to allow myself to put my kid in a club whilst I get stuff done at home (food shop clean house maybe the gym!) on my non working day but i think I would feel wrong as It’s my day off with the kids. I know mrs m is on her own 2/3 weeks whilst Lee is away it’s just my feeling. I would just feel guilty! Any one else? X

      ​@@marinamelling9799 absolutely not! Some children want to do the clubs- they get so much out of them. Hang with friends, new skills etc. and being a mum at home is hard! If the children are happy to go/want to go and you have the money, why not? Win win in my view

    In England and just think it will be easier to proper declutter when they are back to school so don't be hard on yourself as you aren't alone! We are also out of our sleep routine and trying to go bed earlier in preparation for back to school isn't going very well either ! Xx
