craaazy scheduling!!!!
Wow! Just reading about it, makes me tired. (I stopped at six kids --when the laundry pile got over my head.) Is there any way to simplify your life? It sounds like you're trying to be the perfect mom and fufill everyone's expectations. But I have a question. When did we become servants to our children instead of parents?
You have the power to say no to some of this craziness. Granted, not all of it will go away, that's part of parenting, especially with a large family, but by you being responsible for everything, that doesn't teach your children responsibility: ie, the child who was responsible for locking up the dog gets to clean up the mess--not you--and when she's thru with that job, tomorrow she will lock up the dog much more carefully.
hope this helps,

What a great life!
But, if it were me, I would take some time first thing every morning for meditation and stretching, cause honey, life is stretching you to the max and you are choosing it.
