So the past few weeks have been somewhat of a blur. Sunday, I boarded a plane to New York to attend the SES Conference. Learned a LOT (about SEO that is), but when I returned, I felt completely overwhelmed. Not only was there so much to decipher and integrate into my current marketing strategies, I returned to chaos at home. A birthday party for the oldest that still hasn’t been planned (did I mention we are two weeks past the actual birthday?), pictures to upload for my sister-in-law (that I should have uploaded two weeks ago), documents to get together for the new Gala chairwoman and, Oh – my daughters have NOTHING to wear for Easter (which is exactly 7 days away). This is in addition to the everyday cleaning, laundry, grocery shopping, etc.
So the question is, where does the time go and how I can get more of it? I read some great articles in the latest edition of Real Simple, that focused on this very topic – how to save time. Some I am already doing (create a homework box for daily papers, throw out junk mail immediately), and other topics didn’t really apply.
For those of you out there that are working moms, what are your “time-saving tips” to keeping your life in order?
