I know what you mean about having a hard time getting things done. Your doctor's office/lunch/school,etc day does sound like a lot! Good for you! Those are the days I try to remember and hold on to when I have other days, like today, where I haven't been able to do a damn thing besides take my daughter to an art class. How old are your children?? There's a lot of free labor to be had there, lol! Even young kids can help sort laundry and the older ones can wash dishes. It's good for them (builds character and teaches responsibility) and good for you, even though they may whine about it some. My 13 yr old does her own laundry and both of my girls (the other one is 10) take turns with the dishes. My 10 yr old actually loves to dust and clean windows! Yeah, I know...pinch me, lol. They also get cat box and trash can duties.

Now, the grocery store...that's another story for me. There is no way I could go to the store with 4 or 5 kids in tow. I would simply shut down. Right there in the dairy aisle...yup...all done. Can you get a babysitter for the youngest 2 or 3 and maybe take the older ones along as helpers?? Not sure how old your kids are, but it may work.

Sounds like you could really use an extra couple of hands. Do you have people you could reach out to?
