I try to set myself schedules in which I do some researching/writing and some household stuff every day but it just never happens.

I think I'm going to have to go with this and make Mondays and Fridays cleaning & practical stuff days & write Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.

My best friend called my inability to in any way multi-task 'man-like' & of course, I called her out on her casual sexism (No, I didn't).

So much depends on how you define it. I know I will do the washing up whilst the toast toasts whilst Dave will stand & watch it.

Sure. In such cases, one is switching attention repeatedly: serial tasking. The shift feels instantaneous, but isn’t, & slows you down (lag)

It's what people mean by multi-tasking tho & it does get things done faster than doing one job at a time in my experience.

Doing packed-lunch whilst making breakfast, doing make-up whilst eating it, testing spelling whilst dressing gets you out of house quicker.
