Sorry for an URGENT reply! Please assist, Thanks! T_T
One of my kids at school wrote:
My homework and housework have been so heavy that I have often had to work till midnight. ( Really confused with it! )
Thus, I have corrected it to:
I have so much homework and housework to do that, a lot of times, I have to work till midnight. ( Could anyone out there check if this would be a better way of expressing the idea from the above sentence? Please correct if there's any mistakes too, Thank you! ) T_T

You are right that the original sentence is awkward at best.
Try:
- My workload has been so heavy that I have often had to work till midnight.
The second sentence could use a little tweaking. Try:
- I have so much homework and housework to do that I often have to work till midnight.
What do you think?
