How to Keep House While Drowning

When you have kids, caregiving tasks are never-ending. You have to make breakfast and pack lunches. Throw in yet another load of laundry. Answer snack requests. Pick up goldfish off of every surface in your home. Put away toys. Answer more snack requests. It can all be overwhelming. In this episode, Dr. Becky talks to author and therapist KC Davis about how to care for yourself and your home when everything feels like it's just too much.

I am so struggling. but the journey is not over

Creatively customizing storage and organization is awesome! Love the family closet.

I think hanging shirts is easier than folding. Pants are easy to fold . Underwear bras and socks do not need folding. Towels and sheets don’t need folding either.

I actually enjoy rolling the towels though. But yeah. Bins are good!

Biologically it is good to rise with the sun. Also an object in motion is easier to direct than an object at rest
