There's plenty that I do.



As you may recall, I have help in housekeeping via the Australian Aged Care Home Package

My home cleaning schedule ensures most things are cleaned and you would think that I have it made. But there's always more things to do to run our house.

Not included is 

  • Maintenance in between weekly cleans
  • Pet care and feeding our cat Xena
  • Washing and folding and occasional ironing
  • Menu planning
  • Grocery shopping online
  • Cooking
  • Kitchen cleaning and dishes
  • Gathering rubbish for bin collection
  • Budgeting and bill paying
  • Scheduling doctors visits
  • Updating prescriptions and filling pill containers for the week
  • Organising social events occasionally
I am very grateful for the help I get but used to feel guilty that I needed it. This is false guilt and I have since gotten over it. 

Likewise, I have gotten over the feeling that I was lazy, but of course, when I consider how much I actually do, I realise I am far from it.  As well as my hobbies and blogging, there's plenty that I do .
