Home Management Schedule
Every day-
Kitchen clean up
One load of laundry (or

Empty dishwasher every time a clean load is finished and continually put dirty ones straight in (This helps so much!)

Chore Sticks: The kids can pick a popsicle stick with chores written on them. Such as: wipe baseboards, organize movies or books, clean windows, help weed garden, organize school drawer, Draw Again (Just for fun), "Ask mom" (this one is for something mom sees that needs to be done but is not written on a chore stick.) This idea came from Tonya Ferguson @https://4littlefergusons.wordpress.com/

Looks good! I would try to switch the math to the morning and the walk to a different time of day. I have to make the most of my first-of-the-morning energy!
You are not kidding, sister! I had just decided that's what I better do not long ago but am just now reading this. Maybe I was just trying to get my favorite part of the day in and enjoyed being somewhat leisurely with that, Bible time, and reading. But we are pretty much toast later. :(
Also, John MacArthur says to always do what expends the most energy first. Then do other things.
