Average day - wake up, put coffee on, unload dishwasher while that does it’s thing. Have coffee, go hang out the washing, get kids ready for school. Come home, baby has nap and I do reading/watch lectures. Baby wakes up, play and lunch. Do one chore (bathroom/vacuum bedrooms/change sheets). Pick up kids. Washing off the line, dinner prep, training nights we go to training and I do shopping until it’s finished or sit in the car scrolling through my phone just to dumb down a bit. Get home, dinner, sweep, load dishwasher, baths, bed for the younger kids, eldest makes school lunches, feed baby and do assignments while sitting there. Bed. Wake up and start again. Twice a week we do play dates/friend catch up. Weekends Saturday morning is kids chores (bedrooms cleaned, washing in the laundry) then fun, then easy dinner, followed by night routine. Sunday we do family day. I’m a single mum so it’s all on me and the kids to work together to get the housework done and uni is my one luxury, even if it ends up benefiting them with more money once I’m done. If you can look into daycare once or twice a week, just to give you more time to concentrate. You can do it, just allow yourself the time.

It’s busy. Between study, the house, keeping on top of all the kids education and activities there isn’t time for much else....It is achievable, but you must be very disciplined. What are you looking at studying OP?
