Weekly prep

Prep some now to save time later!

Sunday!

That’s the day I use! The day of rest is my day to set up! One day out of the week, I use to see how much in can prep to make a smooth week!

There is always so much going on in the week!

Kids have school, hubby is on the road, kids have activities! 😥

Then there is still meals, laundry, homework, and never ending cleaning!

How as a mom, are we too do it all! 24 hours 7 days a week, there is always something to do.

“Take time for yourself, do what makes you happy”!

How?

There is so much on the go, with no finish line.

How to get that 5 minutes let alone 30 minutes for a rest?

This is where my weekly reset or prep day come in very nice. One day, I will just try! Hit the ground running and do it.

What do I do in that one day that makes a difference for at least Monday to Friday?

I will let you in on some task that I find really help set me up for a smoother week.

Sundays roll around and it’s becoming a habit, which is nice! It didn’t come over night, and I fell out of it fast, with a hard climb back up to it, with lots of room for improvement. However progress not protection I guess, right?

Sundays are always a nice chill at day anyways so why not set up the week. With this I mean tasks that will just give me those couple minutes through the week.

So let’s go through this day, shall we!

I always try to get the kids snacks ready for the week. Fruit and vegetables washed, and chopped, in a container to the fridge for easy access. Bread gets sliced as I make our bread! Sandwich stuff gets prepped like cheese sliced, lettuse washed and bag ect.

Carrot sticks, tossed salad and peppers this week!

Treats being made this day for the week, if there is time to make one. Not every week this one gets done!

I will get the floors done if they didn’t get done Saturday (which they usually don’t). This will be sweeping or vaccuming the main floor, and mopping with the mop and pail. I do this so throught out the week I can use my spray push mop.

Being able to use the speay mop throughout the week is great!

Kids backpacks get ready making sure all papers are looked over and back in.

Sundays are dump day, so all garbage gets gathered and out the door.

Everyone has a shower or bath to get ready for school, I am working on bathing the little ones on Mondays now tho.

Meal planning for the weeks gets at least started if not all figured and written out.

Getting back into meal planning one week at a time!

I will try to pull some of the meat out and onto a cookie sheet into the fridge so it can be unthawing at a slow speed.

As I am trying to get back into my workouts Sundays use to be and hopefully back to stretch day!

I try to get the kid’s to bed a little earlier as Mondays are hard lol. I will also try to make sure my evening routine is done that night, there is something about waking up to a fairly tidy house, and clean kitchen that is addicting! Especially on a monday morning!

Not perfect but still nice!

I aim to have this my night if not done already to sit down and set up my planner for the following week! A well planned and prepped week can make a big difference for myself!

I am loving the Febuary love, fun pretty look! 😍

What about you?

How do you set your week up?

One day?

Each night?

Do you prep for days, or day to day?

Let me know how you aim to make your week smoother?

I always try to do something the night before, that I will thank myself for the next day!

Sundays keep staying busy, with all 4 kiddos need to stuff prepped and gathered! This can eat up most of the evening, especially if mama is planning a shower as there needs enough time for me too have hot water, but not be at midnight lol!

Well, that about sums up how my Sunday’s go.

Do you prep form the week?

What day works for you?

Let’s get the ideas going, if we can safe 5 minutes, it’s worth it all!

Till next week have a great day, productive week and an amazing set up!

  1. Great post Kandis!! I enjoyed reading that! I usually grocery shop on either Sunday or Monday with an idea of what I’m going to cook every night that week. I then wash all of my veggies and fruit and prep them for the week! ( it’s so much easier to grab some carrot sticks or cucumbers when they’re cut up!) and then in the mornings I’ll pull out the meat for supper and go from there! I’m learning on how to better manage my time (with my planner) and it’s definately taking a lot of patience and learning!! But as long I keep progressing then I call it a win!!😃 have a great week Kandis!😃💕
