How I Spend My Days

12 years ago I posted this on Facebook:

17% of my day is spent trying to keep Zoe's clothes on

3% is spent applying medication and/or ointment to Nicky's facial stitches, leg warts, and eczema

25% is spent trying to remember what I was doing

12% is spent cleaning up mysterious substances or bodily fluids

8% is spent answering ridiculous questions

4% is spent feeding people

16% is spent redoing tasks that have already been completed but have been undone by the little people that roam the house

8% is spent trying to locate shoes

1% is spent sleeping

6% is spent repeating myself

6% is spent repeating myself


Life has changed a bit since then, so I figured it's time to update the stats on how I spend my day. 



In 2026:

21% of my day is spent managing the emotions of hormonal individuals

15% is spent at work

3% is spent managing medical situations

12% is spent carpooling

4% is spent feeding people

30% is spent trying to remember what I was doing

1% is spent sleeping

8% is spent trying to get my kids to do their chores

6% is spent repeating myself

6% is spent repeating myself
