Hello all!

I've just recently started my new job. I'm currently working full time, but will probably be going down to part time in the next few weeks. I'm a mom of two little girls. 6 and 2! My fiance just recently got offered a position for a few months working 6 hours away. So, I'm starting to panic on how I am going to handle working and taking care of the girls and the house and everything else alone!

Tips and suggestions are so so so very welcome! Also, if you could maybe share your daily routines? I'm sure this has been discussed on here before, so if anyone would like to direct me to that link, I'd love to see!

Thanks so much!

Welcome!

I'm a single mom (no family to help) of two little girls who works f/t and it can be done.  Keep in mind it's not perfect.

I outsource a lot of household chores-cleaning, lawn maintenance,etc... I prepare as much as I can the night before.  For example, tonight I will prepare a meal for tomorrows dinner. My kids are hungry the moment we walk through the door, there is only time to heat up.  I bathe everyone (including myself) at night, pick out clothes and pack any meals for the following day. When I wake in the morning I only have to get everyone dressed and complete the morning hygiene routine.
