By the end of any given day, I am exhausted from taking care of two little humans every day. They have so much energy, they'd give the Energizer bunny a run for his money.

During the day, I'm usually a powerhouse; I can do many things at once, all while supervising my kids and ensuring they are fed, bathed, and happy. However, once they hit the hay and I can sit down for a second, extreme exhaustion usually sets in. When I finally get to sit down, I don't really feel like getting back up.

As a result, here are 10 things I do that every lazy girl can relate to.

1. Running the dryer for a second time because I don't feel like folding clothes.

Out of sight, out of mind!

2. Downloading a remote control app on your phone for your TV so you don't have to find the actual remote.

Imagine my horror when I switched from a Samsung phone to an iPhone and would have to pay for a device that would allow me to use my phone as a remote control. Pass. Now I actually have to get up and look for the remote. Sigh.

3. Using the same nail polish to go over your chipped pedicure.

Confession: I just did this one this morning. I was running late for something and didn't feel like removing my chipped nail polish with nail polish remover (mostly because I'm not sure where my nail polish remover is, honestly) so I just went over it with the lone bottle of nail polish I have in my apartment. You can't tell how crappy it looks unless you're super close and if anyone is that close to my feet, we have other issues.

4. Using yesterday's eyeliner for a 'smokey' eye today.

I woke up like this. 💁🏻

No, really, I did.

5. Buying new socks so you don't have to do laundry.

I HATE doing laundry. It's so annoying. And I'm definitely not doing a whole load of laundry just for a pair of socks. To Walmart it is!

6. Texting someone who is in the next room.

C'mon guys, yelling over to the next room is uncivilized. Why would I do something like that when I have a perfectly good phone for texting? It's not going to kill my mom to bring me a sandwich while I'm three hours deep in a Netflix binge.

7. Buying a ton of groceries and then ordering food.

Just because I bought the food doesn't mean I actually want to cook it. I'd rather just order a pizza from Papa John's, thanks!

8. Using paper plates/plastic utensils from a leftover party so you don't have to do the dishes.

Hey guys, you know what's easier than rinsing every dish you use and loading the dishwasher? Using something and then throwing it away! You're welcome.

9. Putting leftovers away in the fridge still in the pan (or pot) you cooked it in.

I actually cooked, and now you expect me to search through the hell that is our Tupperware drawer?! Nah, no thanks. Putting the pot directly into the fridge works for me. I'll let it cool down first though, I'm not a heathen.

10. Buying silly gadgets to make your life easier.

Yeah, I have an apple slicer. And a banana slicer. And probably every other silly gadget you can think of that only a lazy person needs. And if I don't have it, I want it. If I could afford ten Roombas to run all at once in my apartment, I would. Sorry, not sorry.

So there you have it. I may be tireless during the day, but once my babies go down for the night, it's a different story. Now if someone could help me figure out how to take a shower while asleep at the same time, you'll be my hero.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
