Coming in October 2013, there will be 31 posts
featuring 31 ways to make being a working mom easier.

Each October, The Nester hosts a gathering where bloggers commit to writing about the same topic for 31 Days.  I only heard about this a few weeks ago and decided to join.  I am very passionate about being a working mom, because it’s the hardest thing I’ve had to do.  Along the way, I’ve discovered things that work (and things that don’t) that have made this a much more enjoyable ride for me…and my family.

My 31 Days topics will include:

• Childcare
• How to Say No
• Date nights
• Girls’ Night Out
• Daily Routines
• Managing Calendars
• How to Use Action lists
• Managing Laundry
• Cleaning
• Your Child’s Extra-curricular Activities
• Taking Care of Yourself
• Pampering Yourself
• Weekends
• How to Free Up Your Time
• Priorities
• Meal Planning
• Commuting
• Delegating
• Outsourcing
• Flex time
• Back up plans
• Making Appointments
• Smartphones
• Halloween
• Saving Money
• Using a Timer
• Grocery Shopping
• Multi-tasking
• Checklists
• Sleep
• Training Others
• Prep the Night Before
• Lunch Break
• Find Quality Time for the Kids

Whew!  That’s a lot of stuff.  Some topics will be combined, but I wanted to list out the full picture of everything that I will cover.  Come back tomorrow for Day 1!

If this is your first visit here, welcome!  Learn more about the girl behind Outside the Box Mom.
