It’s hard work being a grown up. Every hour of our day is jam-packed. We’re working our jobs for eight of those hours, can find ourselves commuting to and from work for another two hours or more. Then throw in the time it takes to prepare meals and run errands. For many of us, we have kids to take care of which cuts down on our free time even further.
