You know the deal.
A reality show recently profiled a woman who worked out of a truck. She took a pickle jar along for the ride so she could relieve herself over the course of the day. There were places, like truck stops, where she could take a break and "go", but pickle jars apparently are far more efficient.
I believe that we are just the tip of the iceberg. The people at Charmin cannot be very happy about this.

Our Welcome Letter:
Here we are, kids in tow, running around and dashing home. Then playing catch up on, well, everything.
Is this really how this mom thing works? Is this what millions of women are doing everyday? For years?
We've always been great multi-taskers. Give it to us and we'll find a way to do it. It's a handy talent, sure, but now manic multi-tasking is all we do, all the time. And there's no deadline in sight. No "after the holidays are over" lull. This daily craziness is it. Day in, day out. Weekends. Holidays.
So, we said to ourselves (and we're shocked we answered, as we haven't paid attention to ourselves in ages): "There has to be a Better Way."
We can deal with busy, but we're done being crazy.
Join us in discovering the Better Way!
