For instance, groceries, dry cleaning, an infant, a package you picked up at the P.O., and so on ad infinitum. It always seems to me that each time I come home, I've got an armload of things to juggle before I can get the door open. Is it true for you, too?

Just over one year ago, I swore off shopping at Wal-Mart. It freed me from the grazing form of shopping, you know, just wandering around until I picked up something to buy. It's amazing how often I return from shopping these days empty handed because I did not see anything I couldn't live without. I started making a list and going for groceries and several other errands all in one trip. You wouldn't believe how much money I've saved. I even started shopping at a "double coupons" store, and become a stereotypical coupon clipper. Simplifying my life has saved me as much as $65 per week, and at the least $28. I used to think getting everything at one store saved time, but all I did was spend more on all that junk in there. Most of it was poor quality, and unlike they advertise, not made in the USA. Good luck to you, you sound really tired! PS--Take a long hot shower, and get a good night's rest if it is possible with a baby at home. You sound like a hard working Mom!

A woman's work is never done. Oh, and if you are married, have a boyfriend, or kids...you could clean and pick up every day for hours and still never be done.
