I doubt this is a huge surprise to everyone, but I am a pretty busy person. Something I don't really have the time to think much about - I just deal with it, it is what it is: Life. But a comment made me think the other day... I did a whole post on what a typical 48 hours in my life looks like in terms of the blog, and they thought I was a full time blogger. (Which I am not)
So... I thought I would show you what my week really looks like. The chaos, and how I manage it all... and ill try to think of a better answer than Coffee, which is my typical response...

How I Manage it All
1. Coffee
2. Taking time out to have a coffee and a wander
3. Making sure I get enough sleep.
4. Routine - if you have one to stick to it makes it so much easier!
5. Lists - writing down what needs to be done.
6. Calendar - To manage what is happening and when (I use the iPhone/MacBook one)
7. Accepting I can't do it all alone - my Mum is a huge help.
8. Food Deliveries - Because no one has time to walk round Tesco.
9. Friends - to listen to me complain
10. Wine.
To be honest I have no idea how I keep up with it all, a lot of it is luck. But maybe sharing mine will give people the inspiration to go and do whatever it is you want to do - and how to manage it! :)
Let me know how you manage your time throughout the week in the comments, I would love to know!
