LEARN ON-THE-JOB
I'm almost 4 years into this mommy thing and i feel like I'm finally getting into it. Balancing it all. Taking care of me, the house, the hubby and then kids, and not all in that order. I was just wondering what ideas do other mommies, new & experienced have to share?

WHATS FOR DINNER
I locve to cook and I am blessed that my husband loves to cook too. This way i don't feel the burn out ot pressure in making the meals for the family all the time.I am getting so much better at creating meals. I am still working on menu planning and have some resources for that too. But I use various sites for recipes and look up three for a similar dish and create my own. This helps change things up a bit and be creative and make cooking FUN!

CLEAN UP
I am not the best at cleaning. Dusting is the worst for me. Sweeping and vacuuming are fine, but i just can't make the time and find the will to do it! I am better at picking things up and teaching my kids too. But the down-and-dirty cleaning, not my strength! HELP!

MANAGING IT ALL
Making sure there is enough toilet paper in the house and other supplies, is a strength of mine for sure. It's not too hard to stcok up these days at the BULK stores. Any ideas on how to be frugal? I knwo I am making food go further and using less electricity and driving less to not-at-all. We need to pinch as much as we can. The gifts we live on as missionaries isn't much so we need ro raise more funds to live on so we can continue to minister and help out here. Any ideas on this?

WHAT TO WEAR
Laundry is a favorite of mine, but putting an outfit together is not my thing. I adopted a black wardrobe when i met my husband, but now try to add more color back in. Does Brown count?

Well I am always looking to improve. I'm very open to ideas!!! HELP this momma learn new, simplified
