Charting My Course (Part 2)

[BL42]

Geeko,

I have developed an amazing routine over the past year since i have moved into my own house. I miss the kids when they are not here, but they are here 1/2 the time and when they are we have an incredible time. The nights I dont have them, i get all the household stuff done and get my social time in, so when they are here its all about them. They are both doing very well and they have long since settled into this house and love the neighborhood, which is full of kids. It could not be working out better.

I'm working on developing my new routine as well. I try to do the laundry (clothes, towels, linens), grocery shopping, cleaning...etc done when the kids are not here to keep me busy and as you said make sure when they are here I can focus my attention on them completely. It helps I'm working remotely now due to COVID and can get things done around the house during the day. I'm also flexing out of work many mornings and afternoons so I can see my son before/after school even on days "I don't have him". I try to socialize when I don't have the kids as well but even though I have a big group of friends many are now coupled up and busy with their families (as I was before BD) so though I reach out I don't always have plans.

Anything you can share about your routine or tips you may have would be appreciated.

If you have time and are willing to share, I believe that many newbies could benefit by reading the specific details of your routine.
