My routine works well at the moment apart from me having the discipline to stop answering emails and phones between 3.30 and 6.30pm. Although, it is all going to go completely to pot during the school holidays, and this is the bit I fear.
How old are your kids?

Routine? Whats one of those?!
 I just try to use nap times and night times to get stuff done mainly, althought every day is different and full of surprises with a 9 month old squirming about!

My youngest will be 3 next month, since he was little he does not know what sleep is, he goes to sleep about 10pm or back of 10, gets up at 7am and thats him until 10pm that night, so with my business i have t make orders as they come in, so they get the choice of colour and scent, with 1 pair of hands its hard going.

Oh dear, so you don't get to make use of sleepy times then!
 I miss being pregnant already too!  I so loved it!  So time for another just yet though, I'd never get anything done!!

I didn't send mine to school and had them working in the sweatshop/family business as soon as they were able.
They are now wreaking revenge by demanding money with menaces as university students. Alison

i have an agreement with another parent at the school that we each help each other out..
if i have a meeting she picks my little one up and i help her out too.... i think the answer is to gather round you as much support as you possibly can be it friends or family. i work at night at the moment. from 10 ish till about 2 or 3.... then get up at 7 to get little one to school, then work during the day if i can, when im not doing my part time job... but thats ok at the moment as my business hasnt really started yet, im still at the development stage...dont know how i will cope with phone calls at teatime.......... can imagine it " mommmmmmmmmmmmmmm phonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnne". perhaps i will just divert the phone to my mobile and hang it round my neck.......
