I make a list for the grocery store but when I leave it behind I have to go by memory. I also shop at BJ’s so I just keep adding things that are running low until I am ready to go there and I do pickup.
Yes the rest of the day seems lighter. Since I am used to early hours from work 5am - 2 pm I just like to get things done early because you never know what comes up during the later part of the day.
