All errands in a day

So I am not the type of person to set out for a day and get everything I need. That is because sometimes it is more productive to deal with things more spread out, for instance if I need to go to four shops I will spread them out over a week. Not this time.

Lately, and even more so a few weeks ago my day to day world was up in the air. As a person that plans ahead this made me crazy. But it caused me to plan ahead and take a different approach to things, which is really what this year is all about.

So I planned early, went through cookbooks for a couple of days to determine meals that could actually be made and allow me to keep my sanity. I categorized...four lists one for each place....I cross referenced, is there anything that would be practical to get one place instead of another? I multi-tasked. It was great. I got to my first place as it was opening and was in and out. Because I did have perishables I ran home and put them away an the headed to Target where I got a few random things, most importantly my rice cooker. Then I ran to my favorite grocery store. I got home and made use of anything I could by preparing it. When life gets crazy I will be ready.
