Two words.
Not.Possible.
I could tell you to hire cleaning ladies and admit to yourself that it is OK to have unfolded laundry. I could even tell you to make lists, use coupons, prepare weekly meal plans and give your kids chores.
But I wont.
Because none of it works and no matter what you do to balance your life, shit always happens and the balance doesn't exist.
You're welcome.
Check out Mama Kat's assignment subjects this week. I am sure her life is perfectly balanced.

Brutal honesty. I love it. And you are absolutely correct!
Oh so true!

Plain and to the point. And very true!
When I first had kids, I bought books on balancing because I was going to balance like a rock on a log! Money well wasted. Good advice.
AMEN...to it all!
Found you at Mama Kat's and really enjoyed my visit here!
You are right. It isn't about being balanced so much as it is about being a balancing act ... on a tightrope. :) (And taking lots of vacations.)
I just want to "LIKE" this post. That is all. :)
Very true! I reading a book this year called 'Find Your Strongest Life' by Marcus Buckingham. He suggested that our life shouldn't be balanced but that we should spend more of our time doing our strengths. Ever since reading that book, I can't think about having a balanced life quite the same! (And I know that when you're a momma, the majority of your time isn't spent necessarily on your strengths, either)
Cute post! Visiting from Mama Kat's!
Yup! You said it. We all pretend it is possible but it isn't!
Balance Shmalance. I am pretty much just surviving!
