“Sitting Still While Doing Everything”

In my home I must say more times than not I’m ““Sitting Still While Doing Everything”. How about you? This is the Hour Where Moms Multitask Like Navy SEALs on Caffeine

10:00 AM — The Mom Multitasking Olympics

By 10 AM, most moms are:

at a game and yes, sometimes when C and Suzzie were little I was at a Game but as Charlie got older it was events for the blog
I spent a lot of time in a car
on a bleacher or in a chair waiting on something to being or end
in a parking lot grabbing food and water before we moved on to whatever was next
in the kitchen straying at the Icebox and Pantry wondering what is for dinner.
or standing in the hallway wondering what I walked in here for or LORD have mercy look at this mess and thinking about running away.

This is the hour where moms sit still physically… but mentally run a marathon.

Everyone else is chilling:

Teens are on their phones, computers or game systems
Dad is at work it’s all on me again
Gerald is glued to the couch
Dogs are barking at a leaf
C is riding bikes God knows where
William is asking if he can come back to spend the night and bring Bradley. LORD help me
And Mom? Mom is doing 47 things at once

This is the hour where moms:

plan the day
make the grocery list
call David to ask how much money we have because it goes in his Chime account I can’t access and that is fair, I have PayPal he can’t access. “Did I date myself or did I date my husband”.
answer texts, clean the desk or a million other task I need to do when running a home and business of my own and C’s and David’s as well
check the weather
check the calendar
check their sanity
check their Fitbit (dead again)
check on kids
check on dogs
call and check on Dad
check on everything

And somehow? We still get things done. Or do we?

10:05 AM — The “Mom Sitting Still But Doing Everything” Checklist

This is the REAL 10 AM checklist:

✔️ 1. Hydrate

Drink water. You’ve had coffee, sweet tea and soda. I need water. Because or body is 80% caffeine and stress.

✔️ 2. Move our body (without leaving our seat)

Because moms don’t get gym time — we get bleacher workouts.

✔️ 3. Make money (yes, while sitting)

Because moms hustle anywhere.

✔️ 4. Make the grocery list

Because someone will ask “What’s for lunch?” and you’ll want to scream.

✔️ 5. Check the schedule

Because someone always forgets a game, a shift, or a chore.

10:10 AM — The “Bleacher Workout” (No Shame, No Equipment)

Moms don’t get gym memberships. We get creative.

Here’s how to get steps + movement while sitting:

1. The Car/Bleacher March

Lift knees one at a time. March for 2 minutes. Looks ridiculous. Works beautifully.

2. The Steering Wheel Push

Hands at 10 and 2. Push inward. Hold 10 seconds. Repeat 10 times. Arms = on fire.

3. The Seat Squeeze

Squeeze your glutes. Hold 5 seconds. Release. Repeat 20 times. Congratulations — you did butt day.

4. The Water Challenge

Drink half your bottle before the game ends. Finish the rest before you get home.

5. The Bleacher Steps

Walk up and down 3 times. That’s 300 steps. Your Fitbit will resurrect itself.

10:20 AM — The “Make Money While Sitting” Guide

Because moms don’t get “work hours.” We get mom hours.

Here’s how to make money at 10 AM:

1. Review Something in Your Bag

Pick ONE item:

lip balm
pen
notebook
water bottle
snack
charger
book
blanket

Take 3 photos. Write 3 sentences. Post. Say: “Message me for the link.”

Boom. Affiliate marketing without being annoying.

The beginning of your business.

2. Play a Game That Pays

You already do this. Moms LOVE this. Earn points. Earn gift cards. Earn cash. Earn rewards.

Scan those receipts you’ve collected because they are worth money.

3. Create a Digital Product in 5 Minutes

Open your notes app. Make:

a chore chart
a grocery list template
a weekend planner
a “Mom’s 3 Things Rule” sheet

Save it. Sell it later.

4. Write a Mini-Review for Your Blog/ Facebook/ Twitter or Instagram/ TickTock

Pick something in your house:

pan
blanket
chair
book
dog toy
cleaning product

Write:

what it is (Who what why)
why you love it
how it helps
who needs it

Done.

10:35 AM — The “What’s for Lunch?” Crisis

This is the hour where kids start asking:

“What’s for lunch?”
“Can we get pizza?”
Do we have Ranch? Ketchup? Mayonnaise? Milk?
“Do we have cereal?”
“Can I DoorDash?”
“Can I have $20?” Again, get a life and a j.o.b. Money doesn’t grow on Trees, but this is my Circus and these are my Monkes and it’s why the Circle is unbroken. Or is it?

And moms start asking:
