That was a great post! I know I struggle with finding balance. My problem is not making a well set out to-do list right at the beginning of the day. I get side-tracked, and sometimes it is hard to concentrate in small little intervals of time that I get work in.

I end up suffering a lot of guilt too – if I don't feel like I am doing enough with my daughter who is home during the day, which is something I know I need to work on.

My work time is when the kids are in bed, and I can have a few hours uninterrupted – but I am definitely going to work on getting a better schedule going!

I actually can't get up in the morning because the kids are light sleepers, so I stay up later than I want to so I can have uninterrupted time. Has anyone tried a mother's helper? I'm wondering about getting someone to come in for a crafternoon once a week for a few hours so I can work on some of my big projects. If that doesn't work, I might try using a VA, but they're my "pet" projects so I'd like to do them myself. Great tips!

I have just the two kids that I'm juggling, but they're 1 & 4. Sometimes it works, and other times it doesn't.<br><br>I think I truly get my best work done late at night after everyone else has gone to bed (which is the case right now).

My newest challenge is my three year old's ability to go most days without taking naps. Lol<br><br>I've got to agree with tip #1 - I'm honestly NOT a morning person, but I've started getting up at 5am while everyone else is asleep, and it's amazing what I can get done in just an hour!
