What I wouldn't give...

I teach all week so weekends come and go very quickly.  I would love to be the woman who can work all day, then come home and cheerily cook and clean before bedtime.  Oh, well, I do cook and clean and I am cheery, but not all three at the same time.  After a day with a room full of 5 yr. olds I do good to come home and get one of these done before bedtime.  Any suggestions?
