When you're exhausted, it's more important than ever to try to reserve your energy and work smart instead of hard. One way to do that is to find products that do double duty or take minimal effort to use. I tried to find items that let you check at least one thing off your list. I hope you find something useful here, even if it's just the suggestion not to be afraid to ask for help with the chores or delegate them to others without feeling guilty about it. Do as I say not as I do and I will try to take my advice. Take care of yourself.
