Hey guys and welcome back to the clutter bug podcast.

Today we're talking about how to run your home like a boss.

So it is exactly nine years since I became a stay-at-home mom.

Can't believe it's gone so by so fast. Let me tell you. It's flown by.

My second daughter was just born and my first oldest daughter is Isie, was two.

Now, I had gone back to work after Isie was born,

and I was not a fan of being a working mom.

I was worried about her all the time, worried about her at daycare if she's having fun, if she was getting sick, if she was eating enough, and I wasn't a fan of coming home and having that rush.

You know, in the morning you got a rush to get them to daycare then you pick

them up from daycare you come home you rush to make dinner get them fed and

bathed and in bed just so you can start the day all over again the next day.

So I think the tipping point was that Isi was sick a lot. She had

pneumonia all the time. She was constantly getting sick from daycare and a

first-time mom I was overreacting so when Abbey was born my

second was born I made a decision to be a stay-at-home mom now I had dreamed

about this I had you know envisioned that I was going to be this

Epic amazing stay-at-home mom and we were gonna do all these great things and let me tell you the reality of the situation

I sucked at it. I was failing. All the

expectations I had of what it was going to look like, it was that wasn't it. I was not a that Pinterest perfect mom I was in my

pajamas all day while the kids were watching you know door the explorer and the house was a disaster and the kitchen was full of dirty dishes and I was not

accomplishing really anything, yet I felt exhausted.

And like I was running around with a chicken with my head cut off all the time.
