I know about the cats too. We have two that wait at the door every time it's open and give you that look like "just give me a chance."Mason Canyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10935307400882363560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582932888892465523.post-67322859538141307302009-11-16T22:25:11.134-05:002009-11-16T22:25:11.134-05:00My son and I are both carry alls.

The fewer trips back and forth, the less of a chance that one of my naught indoor cats wanders outside and gets eaten by some creature hiding in the woods behind our house. My son does it just to get it over with.

I just can't see the point of making several trips when I can literally *struggle* with my hands and arms full of bags in order to get everything at once. When you think about it, which I really never had before, what is up with that?? <br /><br />Lately I've HAD to let go of that way of doing things. Knee and back problems have taught me that I'm not doing myself any favors.

I...Sometime that's my problem...I say too much. I've been told I go around the house twice and come in the back door when I'm trying to tell something. Who knows. I like your theory of why we "carry all."

But there is also the amount of responsibility thrust on us, and that which we take on knowingly. Recently my husband took total ownership of everything - kids, house, you-name-it - because of some health problems of mine, and I felt LOST. I didn't know what to do with empty arms!<br /><br />Glad to have found a fellow journalist with so much to say.<br /><br />Michele<br /><a href="http://southerncitymysteries.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">SouthernCityMysteries</a>JournoMichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11170364981958685438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582932888892465523.post-19030832808405106112009-11-16T09:27:59.040-05:002009-11-16T09:27:59.040-05:00I've tried to remember to carry those canvas b...I've tried to remember to carry those canvas bags to the grocery store. That way it's a little easier to carry everything. I usually try carry four or five of those bags at once though. You're right, it really doesn't make any sense why we do it.Mason Canyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10935307400882363560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582932888892465523.post-6058085488898882802009-11-16T08:30:44.229-05:002009-11-16T08:30:44.229-05:00I will drop groceries from the trunk of the car al...I will drop groceries from the trunk of the car all the way through to the kitchen!
