It seems like I never get a chance to just sit and rest anymore. Between visiting a friend in the hospital, babysitting the grandkids, driving the school bus back and forth, and all the other places and things I have to do I am always run down and need all the help I can get!

Please pick me Stefanie. I am always on the go and seem to run out of energy very fast. I have a very full plate raising a young son alone, working full time, dealing with lawyers and immigration and Homeland Security to get my husband home from Holland. I could really use a natural boost to get me through some very long days. I would give very open and honest reviews for Cranergy!!!!

Well I wake up at 6:00 start working for 1.5 hours then I get the kids up, make there lunch, get them off to school, any shopping I need to do or anything I do it now since they are not here. I also have to clean during this time since my son has bad allergics. I have to work for another 6.5 hours too. I leave my house at 2:30 to go pick up the kids, I have to sit in line and wait for them. we get home about 4:15. Time to cook dinner, eat and get my daughter to ball practice by 6:00. At the ball field until 8. Get all 3 home, bath, and in the bed by 9:30. oh they want a snack too since we ate early. My husband works nights so he can not help me with the kids at night. I live a crazy and hectic life but would not trade it for anything.

Fridays are busy days for me. My typical Friday involves waking up at 6am, getting ready for work, and getting my kids ready for school. I then walk them to their bus stop and make sure they get on the bus okay then run back to my car and rush off to work. Once at work I am scheduled 8am-5pm. On Fridays I also do shipping returns, filing, phones, faxing, and prepare deposits including printing receipts. (twice my normal duty) I get off work at 5pm then have to rush to the kids school (515) to get Lily feed her a quick meal IN THE CAR on the way to her 530 dance class. She then has dance classes from 530 to 730 (sometimes I go get groceries other times I stick around because she has some behavior problems related to her adhd. Then at 730 we rush home from dance to a group of friends that comes over to our house every friday night to play cards/games/hang out. Around 10 we put the kids to bed. When the friends leave around midnight 1am we finally get to go to sleep to get up early for soccer and start the next busy day all over again!

This will be good.

I am yet to get the one i won from you Steph. I guess i sent my address to you. I hope you got it.

Don't pick me. I'm a lazy bum. It won't do me any good. LOL.

I cannot drink Cranberry sorry

Stefanie, I spend my day moving among three places, the bed, the couch and the kitchen. Does that make me a go getter or what?

I am always on the go and doing something. I would love to take this challenge. You would think as a stay at home mother I would have more time on my hands but i do not. Some days I have back to back appointments with doctors that i feel it is a full time job just going to doctors appointments between my daughter and I.

Let's see a busy day recently, starts off with getting up at 6:30 am. A little later than I normal like. It is a rush to get my daughter up and around. Her clothes were laid out the night before. But still takes coaxing of about a 1/2 to get fully dressed. Including hair being done. Next step is to get her to take her medicine without anything but water. No time for breakfast as it is already 7:30 am. Out the door to the bus stop. It takes about 10 minutes to cross the road. Bus pulls up, kids get on. Now waiting to cross back over the street to get back home. Ah, I made it home. In the door I go, time to let the dogs out and throw bread to the birds. next step is doing a load of laundry, while it washes I fold and put away the load in the dryer. Time to pick up the living room and sweep the floor. Washer is done, in the dryer it goes with another load in the washer. Now it is off to clean the kids bathroom, uh this will take awhile.....hard water sucks to clean from the fixtures. You would think out of three kids one could pick up a toilet brush or put the cap on the toothpaste before putting it away. An hour later I emerge. Time To fold laundry again, put away, place clothes from washer in to dryer and another load in washer. Now to straighten up computer room. First pick up the toys and put away the games. Now its time put newspaper and magazines in the proper box. Not in a pile beside it like the kids did after making crafts. Avoid computer desk as floor needs swept and mopped. Dogs need to go out again. Looks like they need water and food. So does the rabbit. Dryer is done. Time to fold and put away another load. Washer is done, place those and dryer and reload washer...Oh look at the time. Walks outside to deep freezer to pull dinner out of freezer to thaw out. Goes to kitchen, puts on counter. Now to put dishes away that have been left out to dry from last night. Wipe down counters, stove, and sink. Sit down to write a couple of bills while snacking on crackers and a water. When that is done, hop in the shower. get out get dress ad do hair. Hears door open means teen is home from school. helps him get a snack to tide over til dinner. Time for another load of washing. head out to carport to wait on bus for younger children to get home. read the newspaper while waiting and get mail. get the kids in the house, start cooking dinner, an hour later sit down to eat...I am starved. Time to done last load of laundry...hubbys work clothes. Just one load, than scooping kids out to their baths while helping other with home work. Oh is it 9 pm already....where did the time go....Kids off to bed...I think I will to.

one day last week, I woke up at 6 and made my sons lunch and breakfast, then I headed to the local elementary school to set up the MCAS tests for them. I made a trip to the grocery store, post office and bank before I headed home to make lunch for my son and his friends (seniors, can leave the school). my son and I went to the eye doctors, then I went back to the school to prepare for the next day MCAS tests for the students, swung by a friends house to discuss our boys graduation party, ran to the lacrosse field to catch a lacrosse game for my youngest son, picked up my lacrosse son and drove 2 of his friends home. cooked dinner, served the kids, cleaned the kitchen and got ready for book group. Made a quick dessert, layed out the munchies, hosted bookgroup and then handled all the last minute school details before heading to bed. I could have used a pick me up around 10 am and 2pm. this is just one of my 5 busy days per week.

I need all the help I can get especially since my Daughter and I have made a deal to go walking in the woods and over the golf course everyday after dinner lol I want to get in better shape , and she just want the stress management walking provides after work , we would both love be taking cranenergy with us on our walks I hear its a great energy boost and my Daughter and I love cranberry drinks .

Wow, everyday is a busy one! I wake up, make breakfast and lunch for the kids and drive them to school or wait for the bus with them, depending on the day. I take a power walk and have my health shake then get to writing for about ten hours (mixed with Gathering ;) In between, I take care of laundry, dishes, dinner, baths, homework, after school and church activities and a yard full of kids who are always visiting. Then I do a little more writing and housework after baths and showers and bedtime reading, hugs and prayers. Alright, I'm getting tired just talking about it...could really use that Cranenergy right about now...

Did I also mention I have Epstein Barr/CFS? Seems I'm always fighting against my own body to get everything done...

For an instance, this past Saturday, I had to get up arrive at the office at 9am to complete pay roll and have it to the accountant for our payday on the 20th, from that point I had to take my 7 year old for his baseball pictures at 11:30, which meant rushing home, bathing him and helping him look nice for his pictures. Then we were to arrive at his baseball game that afternoon at 1:15, the game started at 2 lasted until 4pm then I needed to arrive at a picnic by 5:00pm, it rained but we were able to still have it since it was under a carport. This is just an example of a day, but through out this day I was also on call so my cell phone continually rang through out the game, the picnic and so forth. By evening I was exhausted.

I have tried the Cranergy on my own and thought it was great tasting and did help me feel better through out the day. I loved it. I had been selected to receive this as a trial some time ago but never did receive it.

I would love to try some, I have heard mixed feelings on the stuff, so I have put off buying any of it, but I love cranberry juice and ocean spray is usually the brand I buy when I buy it.
With a toddler and newborn my days are very busy and today is no exception. We were gone all weekend in chicago because my sis in law is getting married in a month and Maddie had to be measured for alterations on her flower girl dress. So the house is extra messy today. I have several loads of laundry, the sink is full of dishes, and I have to vacuum. Plus my lil sis just had a baby this weekend, and her shower is this weekend coming up and i still have to get everything ready for that. I am making her a diaper cake and I haven't yet begun to start putting it together. I want to get it done early in the week so that if I need anything else for it I have plenty of time to pick it up and add it

On Saturday, started my morning working during a break checked Gather, then back to work until lunch time where 30 minutes was scheduled exercise the rest lunch. My boss sent me to the post office to mail packages and there is always a line. This is when I really could have used a pick me up, as was in line a long time. I finished work, then still had to water the plants and figure out dinner. I ended up eating cereal was to tired for cooking.

Wow, like the many who have already left comments when you are a mom it seems that everyday is a busy day.
Getting kiddo ready for school-breakfast, packing lunch etc, dropping off at school, grocery shopping, laundry, vacuuming, picking up the house, washing dishes, picking up kiddo from school, homework monitor, cooking dinner, cleaning up kitchen, bathing kiddo, getting kiddo into bed, setting out clothes for the next school day....repeat.
I rarely stop to take time for lunch a pick me up would be much appreciated.

I would LOVE to try the Cranergy! :)

Every day is busy! I work full time, I have a todder--which means extra commuting to the babysitter's house, and I'm pregnant, so there's prenatal appointments all the time. Then there's housework, bills and of course...the toddler...

Even when I'm off on an occasional Wendesday (when I have to work a Saturday) there's always something going on. The last busy Wednesday was a prenatal appointment, grocery shopping, unload groceries in the pouring rain, and then preparing a lesson for the class of SIX two year olds. That class alone is enough to wear me out, LOL! :o)

Pick me, pick me. I'm always on the go. Most of the time I think I'm away from my house more than I am there. Which of course is obviously by looking at the dust building up on everything. Monday thru Friday, I start about 5:00 a.m., go to work, and stay there until about 6:00 p.m. Working at a law firm can get very crazy. So by the time I get home, eat dinner, clean up, and read emails, it's time to get ready for bed. Believe me there are many times during the day I could use a burst of energy. Especially the closer Friday gets because at that point I'm dead dog tired. So please pick me to try this out.

I am constantly on the go. My daily life includes work, my daughter's softball, tending to my pregnant, diabetes-ridden, heart-condition stricken 24 year old sister, and not to mention the husband and the dog. You asked for a recent one-day. Well, here you go:

Recently, I a day's time, I: Attended a wedding, attended 2 birthday parties, attended an "adults only" bbq, then went to a comedy show. Granted, they were all fun, but let's face it, even the fun days can take a wear and tear on your body and mind. I believe everything should be in moderation, even fun, but that isn't always the case for "On-The-Go"

I'm always on the go...I feel like a regular taxi service these days.

I always feel like i'm on the go, taking care of a household, running after my 2 year old, cooking etc....I never feel like i have enough energy. I would love to try this product!

I would love to try the products.
A busy day like yesterday. i got up early to go to church then came home and did laundry, played with Andy and Jessica, picked Anthony up at 230AM, boy was he behind..lol
Thats not a typical day though. A typical day starts at 530AM getting everyone off to school and runing to the dr's, pharmacy, ETC.
Please pick me i would love to try it, I am always on the go.

I stay home and watch 5 kids everyday under the age of 5, then the 14 yearold son comes home from school at 3! I crave energy!! I am tired all time and could use a boost around 3.45 everyday! I drive back and forth to 2 diffrent schools, mow the lawn, do the gardening, cook dinner, give baths...oh and housework too!! I really need to be 20 again or this drink!! LOL!!

Lately, it seems like I'm running on empty on empty. Even the stairs I have to climb to my 2nd floor apartment are an effort!

This seems like it would be perfect for me

My busiest day was this past sat. I got up at 6:30 and made breakfast for 4, cleaned up then we had to go to home depot and rent an agur to unclog the toilet, then that got stuck so we had to dig up the yard, I also had to prepare lunch for 6, then I had to take the machine after 6 hours of labor back to hOME dEPOT AND BUY MORE PARTS FOR PIPES, THEN i HAD TO COME HOME AND MAKE DINNER FOR 10 PEOPLE, aFTER DINNER i THOUGHT i WOULD READ A FEW BOOKS AND WRITE MY REVIEWS FOR THEM BUT INSTEAD i ENDED UP IN THE HOSPITALaround 8pm as my hubby had a stroke, I had to call all the relatives and still make arrangments to have someone else finish repairing the pipes and putting the toilet back in place. After finally getting my hubby into a hospital room I went home at 4am jumped on gather to let everyone know what had happened, and finally feel asleep around 5am but had to get up and be at the hospital at 8 Am. I did manage to read those books in the hospital while hubby was undergoingtests but I have not written the reviews yet.

Would love to be involved. I normal have a very busy week with Destiny in school and running to do stuff for her school and doctor appointments for her also. This week got to do the the errons Thursday but do a 1 mile walk every day when My oldest gets home and mor doctors appointments.

Everyday is a busy day for me. I am up by 9am. I take Maxx out for his morning walk, come in and take something out for dinner. Help my mother in law get her breakfast, write the to do list for the day of her items and get her started on that. Then I wake my stepson up to start his job hunting for the day. By that time it's about 10:30. I finally make my way to the computer and check emails. Then come to Gather and view for a bit, comment if I can. Then I hop on ChaCha and immediately put myself as away so that I can take Maxx out for walk #2, It's around 11am at this time. Come in from that and get back to ChaCha, I try to take a break for lunch around 1pm which is also the time that Maxx goes out for Walk #3. So, 2pm I'm back at it. 3pm I lay down for a short nap. Hubby gets home at 4:30 and it's his time.. so we sit and chat for a bit, do our swim for the day, shower, finish dinner. I jump on my GPT site and do that while I"m working my regular job until Midnight Mountain time. Then it's more ChaCha and checking MCC. Usually around 3am it's bedtime. Then I wake up and do it all over again. During work I have dishes to do, left overs to put away, making sure my mother in law has taken all her meds for the day, making my husband's lunch and picking up after Maxx's playtime. Weekends I have to throw in running errands and grocery shopping to that schedule. I can always use a pick me up. My health has not been good lately. I've been having a lot of fatigue with chest pain, shortness of breath, pelvic pain and other female problems. I've not been able to get rid of this cough for 9 weeks now. I have no time or money to go to the ER so I just press on every day as normal. I try to stay as calm as possible to keep my blood pressure down and my sugar levels right(I'm Diabetic). Eating the right foods isn't always an option if the things I need aren't on sale so I just do the best I can each day trying to maintain my energy(which is minimal these last 7 weeks) and get everything done that I need to in a day.
I'd really love to see if Cranergy really works. I'll try anything once.

I am always dragged in every direction. I have to get the kids taken care and to school, get home and take care of my youngest, all while cleaning the house AND doing my work from online. Then the kids get out and I feel like a chicken with it's head cut off as I help with homework, prepare dinner, get baths out of the way, etc. Only to lay down for a few h ours to have it start all over again.

I have two little girls. On Wednesdays, I work out, then get one to gymnastics, the other to swimming, then we all swim. We rush home to eat lunch and get the little one down for nap. Rush to start dinner, then we go to Family Yoga and then my one daughter has cheerleading. And of course, with all that (and the chlorine in the hair), they have to have baths and hair washing.

My day is full of stuff... I wake up, I study and do my coursework, I work around the house, and I'm always on the go with my friends and family. It seems like I never just sit and breathe anymore. Having Cranergy might be a huge help at getting me through the day!

my daughter and I went looking for her wedding gown!!!

I rarely have time to sit down all day. I have a 3 year old and a 9month old who never stop moving. I am always cooking, cleaning, working, playing, shopping, going to appointments.. I have days where I am very tired and would love to try Cranergy to see if it could help me have the energy for my busy days!

I am usually up at around 4 am, I start off running everyone to work, I then come back, get ready and go to work myself, then I come back, make dinner, then go pick everyone in the house up from work. I get back home, we eat dinner, I then clean up the kitchen, do the rest of the housework ,get the kids ready for bed and get up the next morning and do it over again. I dont have this schedule every day, but I do it 4 times a week.

I won a free sample of this, but I haven't received it yet. It was from a pickmeup chat

How to choose just one busy day? One of busier days recently was a Saturday. I had to have my son and stepson at the baseball field for opening day ceremonies at 8:30 am. My son also had a 10:00 tee ball game directly after opening ceremonies. My step-son's baseball game was at 11:00:30 at a different field. After the tee ball game I took my daughter (who had come with us) home to get her ready for her softball game. The softball game started at 2:00 and she had to be there at 1:30 to warm-up. The boys stayed at the baseball field with my husband.

Meanwhile, my older daughter was at home getting ready for her soccer games. She had games at 2:30 and 4:00 and needed to be at the field at 2:00 to warm-up. I dropped my younger daughter off at the softball field at 1:30 then left to take my other daughter to the soccer field. After I dropped her off at the softball field i went back to the softball field. Once softball was over we went back to the soccer field to watch my older daughter's second game.

I got home at 5:45 in time to get cook supper, but luvkily I did not have to go anywhere else that night.

A Monday for me starts at 6:00am --- pick out kiddies clothes and get a load of laundry in
then getting the crew going at 7:00am breakfast, make lunches,feed cat...hop in shower before hubby leaves.
8:00-11:30 more laundry time , play with son-- go a little gathering :D
LUNCH
Son goes down for a nap
time for cutting Q's and reading adds making shopping list for market trips.
A bit more gathering.
the chore for the day Monday its the bathroom !!! :O
3:30 Daughter home son up mid day snack for us all
play untill about 4:00--park or bike rides around the block
4:30 get daughter started on home work and I start with dinner.
Eating by 5:30 -6:00
nights are not too busy now so I'm just veggie out in front of the tv :D

I don't even know how to pick just ONE busy day! LOL

I work rotating 10-hour shifts, and I have 3 kids (on 2 different custody schedules) so I'm doing a lot of driving them back and forth. My youngest is still in diapers. That alone keeps me busy!

Let's see, tonight I go to work at 9:00 PM and will get home around 7:30 in the morning. Then I will sleep until 1:00, go to the doctor at 2:00. After that, run to the bank and the post office, and pick up my daughter from daycare. Bring her home, do a few loads of laundry and hopefully take her to the park for a little bit. She and I will have supper, and then I'm hoping she will take a short evening nap so I can nap for a little bit too, before running off for another overnight shift.

I usually work during the day. Last Thursday I worked from 6:45 AM to 5:15 PM, then picked up my oldest 2 kids and had supper with them. Dropped them back off at their dad's house, and then drove back to the town I live in, picked up my youngest child from daycare, took her home and gave her a bath. Put her to bed, worked out (dance dance revolution!) for 30 minutes, did a couple loads of laundry and dishes, and went to bed myself. Whew!

Sometimes I work 14 or 15 hour days. I could definitely use some energy boosts then!

Sunday was a busy day for me...up and breakfast for the family by 7 am then off to the vet for the new kittens first visit by 9:30 that took a couple of hours. Back home to prepare lunch, do laundry and get dinner started. Then while all that was going on I blessed my house by vacuuming, making beds and taking another shower because I had to leave for work by 3pm for a shift at Disney. Arrived at work and prepared my cart for the evening and off to the outside for the next 4 hours. Usually, I love doing the glow cart but last night we had really bad rain which meant I had to be under spaceship earth and it cut out a lot of the people that I normally see. Anyway, got off at 10:30 back home. Take the dogs out and make sure they had plenty of food and water in thier bowls, another shower and finally in bed about 12:30 this morning to be back up and in my office by 9.

Do I need something to pick me up during the day, you bet.....usually a Dr. Pepper or two to keep me going and we all know thats not very good for you...lol

I would love to take the challenge with Cranenergy energy juice! I work full time at a car lot, have two teens at home and a 10 month old boy at home. I have 30 to 40 cars to clean and detail at work plus all the other odd and ends things that I do at work then go home make dinner, clean house and outside tasks at home that need to be done. everyday is a challenge to keep going!

Talk about busy days.
One of my most busiest days is Saturdays.
Saturdays is when there are several events.
This past Saturday started at 7:30am.
I had to float between meetings and events that were scheduled at the same time of day.
It started out with our New Members Graduation Reception that we had to setup starting at 8am. Then we had a Corporate Meeting at 10am. Next was the New Members Graduation Celebration which started at 11:30am. We had the Reception that started at 12:30pm and lasted until 2:30pm. After that we broke down the reception for the Graduation and setup for a Singles Function that started at 6:pm that day. I managed to get away at 3pm to grab a bite to eat for lunch, and was worn out by that time. Although I've tried this product, I'd like to give it another whirl and tell in detail how it helps me make it through one of these hectic days. Thanks.
Next

Everyday is a busy day. I work full time, go to school full time and take care of a sick friend and her kids in addition to my own kids. I need more energy to keep up because all this dragging me in 15 different directions is taking a toll on me. I would really like a boost to keep me going.

I have six children so my day is always a busy one! This was my day today: woke up a 4:30am to make sure my husband was packed and had everything for his business trip, made him breakfast. Got him out the door. Woke up my 15 and 16 year old so they could make any adjustments to homework and shower before school. Got them breakfast, reviewed their homework and signed a few papers. My three year old woke up. He isn't feeling well so I rocked with him. Time to wake up my seven year old and get her in the bathrub. Five year old wakes up help her into the bathtub. Nineteen year old comes upstairs and can't start his car so I get the kiddos out of the tub and make sure it is completely drained and then go outside to jump my son's car. He's off for work. Back inside I make breakfast for the younger children, get the teenagers out the door for the bus. Get everyone dressed, have to find a shoe! Take the seven year old to school. Two smaller children and I return home and I change bedding and wash down walls, empty dishwasher, mop floors and vacuum. Put together a grocery list and organize coupons. We head out to Walmart for grocery shopping, swing by the dry cleaners and pick up my son's suit from Prom. Back home we do prep work for dinner, clean up and head to the park. From the park we go to a Fishful thinking activity, then the library. Back home for lunch. Neighbor stops by for a visit, phone is ringing off the hook...welcome to Monday. Then my grandma comes over for a pedicure. Kiddos are down for a nap. Son wets the bed so I change bedding (again). Fit in some gather.com time. Teenagers arrive home and I fix a snack for them. They look after the two smaller children while I fit in an exercise routine. Time to pick up the 7-year old from school. Review papers, read for 20 minutes with her. Feed her a snack. Now kiddos are watching TV and I'm signing off to complete dinner preparation and get everyone fed. From there I'll be heading to volunteer for a local food bank then getting everyone in pajamas, cleaning up after dinner, helping with homework and calling a loved one to wish them a happy birthday. Bed should feel wonderful come 11:30pm when the house is silent and the work done.

I;'m a Grandmother of 2 kids, 9 and 3 years old. I watch my 3 year old and have M.S. but am able to function fairly well. I'm worn out often during the day and any help I can get will help!

Well, my sluggishness is because of my borderline personality disorder. My man left me, the state took my kids, and my brother passed away all within a year. I think my mind just shut down everything it didn't think was worth keeping after all of that. So, my energy went out the window. Honestly, the only time I have energy is when it's raining. I know it sounds odd, but something about the rain refreshes my spriit and sends me into trying to fix aspects off my life. Think this drink will fix that? I'd sure like to hear if it does... because prescribed medications haven't really done a thing for me. And I'm on the strongest dose they will put me on without making my heart explode! Haha.

We've been very busy lately. My father in law is terminally ill and we're all doing our best to keep him at home. We're lucky enough to have my sis in law from another state come to help out. We take her over and drop her off in the mornings before work (out the door at 6am), then on to work for our 8am start and back to my father in law's for the evening meal and to pick up my sis in law. Most nights I'm not getting home until 8pm and I've been drinking too much coke and mt dew!

I won one of these awhile back, but still have not received it. Looking forward to trying it. Thank you.

I wake up by 5 am to get hubby up and off to work, make breakfast for the kiddos, get the kiddos off to school, pick up the youngest at 10:30, run errands, clean house, work on the yard, entertain the youngster, pick the next child up at 3, drive across town to pick up the eldest on fridays, and of course we ride our bikes, geocache, and pick up aluminum cans around town, then dinner must be made, dishes done, kids bathed, laundry started again, and it's a miracle if I make it to bed by midnight...

on the go gatherer has my name written all over it. i usually start gathering at 8 in the morning, then throw a load of clothes in the wash, gather some more, throw them in the dryer, gather, dishes,gather,mail,gather,lunch,gather, start dinner,gather, answer emails and gather the rest of the evening. the only problem is i need a nap by 2pm. my energy is no more but i still need to keep pluging on. i would make the best candidate for this . thank you gather and cranenergy for sponsoring this one

On the go, Id say im on the go a lot I was finally able to grab breakfast at 12 today.
I would love to try this product it might be just what I need when I dont have time to stop and have to keep on the go.

I wake up about 8 am and start straightening the house, taking care of James and his breakfast, laundry in between James and internet, I usually put dinner for that night in the slow cooker or crockpot, before long it is lunch time for James, then he takes his nap, I do more things on the internet for the foundation, make calls I need to make regarding the foundation, write letters I need to write, James wakes up and I tend to him, finish up dinner for when Eric gets home, then I spend some time with them, back to foundation things, and off to bed anywhere from 11 to midnight.

Yesterday was a very busy day for us. We had purchased several items for the garden and everything needed to be planted. Gardening is hard work!

I sure could have used a Cranergy!

Whew! It makes me tired just reading everyone's to do list.... ; )

I would love to try Cranenergy! With a new little one around, I could use the help!

I have 2 kids one 14 and one 9 and both are involved in activities from sun up to sun down and I feel lately like a cab driver lol . I have to take them to school which they attend school miles apart so i have to rush drop off one and rush to drop off the other, then they often have afterschool activities and concerts and science night i have to attend all in one night and i'm running on empty.

Well I have a baby. She's 8 months old. So My day starts when she decides she's hungry, sometimes even in the middle of the night. She's crawling and trying to walk so I spend my day chasing after her. I am also my husbands primary caregiver so I prepare his meals and administer his medications. I have a dog that has to pee every 2 hours during the day and I always keep my house clean, or at least try my hardest, it seems Im always cleaning. Every day is a busy day for me.

everyday is busy and more so mentally for me. I struggle with energy because I have sleep apnea and hardly ever fall into a deep sleep. It is a struggle to do much of anything even the simplest things because of the sleep apena. I try and help with my 2 yr old granddaughter and still deal with two grown kids as well as overcome some health challenges. Because I take several meds. I cannot always take vitamins this makes you low on things and tired as well. Plus trying to keep up with laundry and such. Thanks for reading. I guess I am getting way to old at almost 50 and all these health concerns.

I'm in! Let me know what I can do to help!

If anyone doesn't know already, I'm a very busy mother of two kids.
One is in the 2nd grade and the other in preschool. One has to be ready for the bus by 8:12 in the morning and the other has to be at school by ten minutes till 9. So, my day is busy from the time I wake up at 6:30 in the morning till 4 in the afternoon.
In between getting kiddies ready for school, there's chores, writing, some reading time for me!, then 12 noon, it's time for getting my preschooler off the bus..
Lunch, more chores, more mail reading bill paying..
3:30 pick up other son, get homework done. Supper..
Well, you get the point.
Do I need energy?
You bet I do!

A regular day for me starts bright and early at 4 in the morning. I get through everything that I need to do for the day, send out work emails and respond to any from the night before. Head to the office of our family business for a couple hours, bring home the work that I cannot do there. Tele-conference for a couple hours before lunch, email the work I completed the night before.

Break for lunch

Work with the girls, run them around to their activities till around six, working on my laptop where I stop and wait in viewing rooms, and sitting rooms. Home to make dinner or head out on a job which entails me heading to events in the city that I helped plan and coordinate. Non event nights I get things done that I enjoy, gardening or reading, get chores done, get the girls ready for the next day, put them to bed and then work into the evening.

Rinse and repeat.

I am a very "on the go" person, with three young and involved children, as well as a full time job, and all the organizations I am involved with I would love to try a product that could give me some energy without caffeine.

Weekends are always busy around our house, especially Saturdays, because we are trying to catch up on household chores that cannot get done through the week because of work. We run our errands on the weekends and clean house, etc., and by Sunday, we are always tired. I could definitely use an extra lift every day but especially on the weekends when I am trying to get everything done that I can't get done through the week because of work.

I have been wanting to try Cranergy since I first heard of it here on gather as it sounds more like something I might enjoy over those fad 'super' drinks! I'm sure my busy days pale compared to all the mothers here on gather and those with the demanding and busy families like I once had. Still, I feel run more down and and as I have just got myself stretched way too thin at this stage of my life. I'm a middle aged empty nester, basically alone in what feels to me like a foreign land! Having been born and raised in the midwest and from 3 years ago on to now and ever living smack dab in the middle of the Sonoran Desert, Phoenix to be exact. Not only a HUGE climate difference, but minus my support network, family and friends I'd come to count on. I'm very grateful to have been adopted by a kitten who has immensely brightened my days, but he is also part of my challenges! I don't know many people here still, no one close to me and I don't drive. Not driving makes the smallest of errands a journey of significant proportions and a test of endurance as well for this northerner as today, May 18th, back home it is 40 degrees and today here it was up to 107 degrees!! That drains even the young people that are used to it and have access to vehicles! I have learned a lot though in how to best handle, I've got to go out, get mail, go to post office, do banking, buy some groceries and even just to take the trash out no matter the weather so an education is inevitable! I keep 32 oz bottles in my freezer half full of water and when I go outdoors I take one and fill with water. That thaws in an amazingly short amount of time, but fortunately walking in this weather I generally finish the whole thing in no time and upon reaching my destination must refill just to make it back. Less clothes is NOT better, too much exposure and no absorption, loose cotton slacks, loose tshirt, hat always and sunglasses far more advantageous to completing a round trip without collapse and a bandana to wipe sweat is also a good idea, also less skin exposed to this brutal sun is very wise as I haven't solved the problem of how not to sweat the sunscreen right out of my skin after I apply as soon as I hit the sidewalk! Not wanting to be lizard lady, I still apply it. These challenges on their own are enough to make me never want to leave my home, but I'm also not independantly wealthy and don't have a husband to support me, nor any type of insurance plan, medical or dental so I have to go to work, kitty gets awful hungry too and wishes to have his Meow mix! I don't have a washer and dryer and must have clean clothes to work in daily and you can't wear anything twice around here and I have never experienced hot and painful muscles and joints as I do lugging my laundry baskets and supplies outside and down to the laundry mat where things get hotter by nature than this, and I still got to get the stuff back home and put away. Then walk to work looking human and decent, knowing I got to walk home as well after working on my feet all night as a waitress in a busy restaurant. Can't get sick, no sick days and no way to get to a doctor if I did know one or have any insurance. Of course you can imagine there's more, but no other's schedules to juggle anyway, so that will do for me, is unusual for me to complain and this seems to be a long one!! Is just hard for me alone to juggle all, stay sane and responsible and stay healthy and still have the energy to get up and do it again!!!

I work full-time and hold a state-wide position in my labor union (which is a 24 hour a day job sometimes!) My husband and I also share 8 kids so some of our days can be quite busy but nothing compared to when for three years I worked full time, commuted 3 hours each way to go to a top 10 law school, got married, and lost my mom....oh and my daughter was born over christmas break during my first year and my son was born over fall break my last year

I am certainly on the go! With a full time job outside the home, 3 kids, 1 one on the way via my best friend as our surrogate, I am constantly running. Yesterday I got up at 6, got the kids ready for school, breakfast served, lunches made then out the door by 6:45. Work at 7:30, left work at 10 to go to the doctor with my surrogate, back to work at 11:30. Left work at 4:30, came home, helped the 11 year old make dinner, did laundry, helped with homework, found time to snuggle with my husband and then it was bed time at 10. Whew!

This would be great!

My days and weeks are always busy. I have a special needs daughter, who has speech and ot. I have a son with a heart murmur who i am taking to doctor appts. My is usally like this.

wake up at 7:oo get brie on the bus
(depending on the day) Get bray to school
wait for brie off the bus
pick up bray from school
go to speech
come home make dinner
go clean the classroom
every second monday of the month I have a borad meeting for my sons preschool

that is just one day in my life

I love this stuff and I'm busy all the time!!!! Busy trying to gather...................LOL

I have seen Cranenergy advertised on tv and would love to try it. I drink cranberry juice a lot for my kidneys. To get any extra boost with that would be awesome!! THANKS.

I think you asking about when was the last busiest day we had is a bit weird.

You should know that most of us are busy, most of the time.

Because I am so busy I have a hard time remembering what happened alot.

So I'd love to try the Cranenergy... but I doubt it's on the Canadian market.

It seems like you have enough people willing to review, but I'd do it if you need anyone else.

well my days are always busy..who doesn't need a lift! LOL

I will do it too, I need energy because I am on my feet all day dealing with customers outside.

I don't think I hardly sat down at all yesterday. My husband had an appointment that we ran to, plus getting the oil changed and just generally running a thousand errands.

I'm always busy, I have 3 children, one in high school, one in middle school and one in elementary school.. My son is graduating from high school this year and my daughter is graduating from middel school which girls are more into things then boys are. Last weekend before last, we were out trying to find her a white dress and it took us all day and we finally found one, it was busy day. So this would be great for me!

Well this is my one moment of calm in an other wise crazy day. Get the kids and the husband out the door in the A.M. Make sure the mother in law is up feed and dressed. Head out the door to my first job then make sure i'm back for lunch. Get lunch for myself and the mother in law. 15 min to myself the out the door to job #2. Back for the kids after school. Head to football and guitare lessons and then back home to get dinner, home work, tidy my house and get ready to start all over again.

Yesterday, Monday, May 18th was a horrible day! Everyone wanted something the day before and no one would leave me alone for 5 minutes. Baby grandson was awake screaming most of the night because of teething. This old nanners got very little sleep, so it made the day seem even worse. I tried getting a cup of coffee down, ended up drifting off to sleep........woke up and rushed...........walked into work and pow! It started, Pam we need this pam we need that.........as I am out getting stock from the shed someone goes to the administrator and says I'm not getting the items needed......grrrrrrrrrrr.........after I restock, I come to my desk to get a cup of coffee, since I didn't finish the one I had earlier, and put an extra shot of caffeine in it.........man did that taste nasty.......the phones start ringing and for the life of me they would not stop......I remembered around 1:30 to have lunch.......rest of the afternoon I was dealing with unpaid invoices, phones, people!!!!! Ahhhhhhhhhh.......I really needed one of two things.........for Calgon to take me far away or a good tall shot of Jack Daniels, but since neither one of those options were advisable, I ended up drinking water......and longing for a snooze........going home, the traffic was horrid, people weaving in and out, really makes an hour drive nerve wracking........got home, thinking......ahhhhhh....time to relax.........YEA RIGHT......Bubba had to have his nammers time with me........then it was dinner time, clean the kitchen time, pack hubby's lunch time.........WHEN IS MY WIND DOWN TIME???????? I really need a good shot of energy!!!! A day like yesterday, made me slowly climb out of bed this morning!

I personally think that making changes to help overall is a better solve then adding "energy drinks" or things like that.
Sleeping better, eating better, getting in better shape... all of these things can make long term changes to help you make it through the day without the dips and lulls that many of us experience.
I know that hectic lives do not make for an easy time making sure to take care of ourselves, but it is the best long term fix for having enough energy to make it through everyday days and those hectic busy days as well.

Today was a busy day for me. I am still recovering from the flu but I had a few things that needed to get done. My day started with taking the girls to school. Then I had to head to Office Depot to pick up my online order. Of course I had to stop and get some Starbucks...needed the energy. I had a few things I need to take care of online once I returned home. I did the laundry and got ready for my doctors appt. Headed to my doctor, I was there for a few hours. I left there and picked up may daughter. I had to take the little one to the doctor b/c she has a standing dr's appt on Mondays. I went to get gas and sadly my window got stuck down in the door. I had to wait for my bf to come get my truck and switch vehicles with me. It wouldn't have been so bad if it wasn't storming here today. Next I headed home to make dinner and I finally had a couple of mins to check Gather. I am still trying to relax but I have a few others things today. Needless to say, I would love to try a product that is going to give me a lift. I would like to get away from coffee. Hope I get pick to test the product.

I would love to try it .

I also would love to try it! i love cranberry juice!

Yesterday was busy. I had to do some banking for a non-profit and then go on to work. I hate banks. This was was so slow. Two tellers and 3 people sitting at desks pretending to talk on their phones while the line grew longer. Ack!

Once I arrived at work, I had a ton of email to sift through. I'm not there on Fridays, but email, like rust, never sleeps. One of my email requests was for me to caption a video that will go online. I like captioning, but then the phone started ringing and before I knew it, it was 2 PM.

I was late for a meeting with some lawyer about a former employee's case against the school. I still don't know what that is all about. I didn't even know the guy who got canned. He was just a name on an email once or twice a year. So I meet this attorney from the AG's office and mention to him that I don't even know the schmuck and I really need to get to work on captioning this video. He feels compelled to tell me he wears hearing aids and loves captioning. We discussed the wonders and glories of captioned programs for about 5 minutes.

Then he started asking me questions about ordering supplies and this vendor's trade show that went down last year. I'd won a door prize (a shredder) and the school demanded I turn it over to them, which pissed me off at the time. I told him I gave it to the honors society and he started talking ethics with me, so I told him he needed to stop right there because as a parttime employee I don't get paid holidays, sick days, or vacation time. No benefits at all and you want to lecture me about a shredder that might be worth $150? Don't go down that street, Perry Mason. So he shut up about it.

He asked me about some other stuff related to ordering supplies, and then said if they needed me to come to court, he would let HR know and it would be the end of June. I told him I was not available at the end of June because I go to Comfest at the end of June and spend the rest of the month recovering.

Then I went back to my humble desk, but an adjunct came in and needed help in the computer lab. I didn't even get my cuppa tea! He's a first time online instructor, and I swear, I could now teach the damn course online myself. But he's a sweet guy and is really trying his best to teach well in this format that is new to him.

Finally, I got back to my desk and saw it was time to lock up stuff. Seven hours and I didn't even get to touch the captioning. Lucky for Wil the CrockPot was invented so he got a hot meal at the end of the day.

So yeah, I like Cranberry Juice, as long as there is no high fructose corn syrup involved.

The End.

I seem to never have the energy to do everything that I need to do.  I often skip meals because I am too busy to eat and I forget. However I do drink a lot during the day. I tend to drink too much Coke and would love to try this new Cranenergy. I love Ocean Spray products.

Even if I don't win, I think I'll go out and buy it anyway.  Depending on how much sugar it has, that is.  I work in a Chairman's Office so there is really no such thing as "rest" except for maybe at lunch time or when I have to run to the ladies room after drinking so much water.  I am so glad this week is almost over because it has felt like the week from HELL.  Monday we had a guest lecturer for which we had been preparing for months in advance, I'm so glad it's over!  We stayed until almost 8pm cleaning and putting away food.  By Tuesday afternoon, I was so ready for a vacation with all the goings and comings of different needs from doctors and staff.  I am really looking forward to this holiday weekend.  I need a break!   :)

Even though I no longer work outside the home, I am constantly on the go...I would love to test this product. I have been running from Dr Visits, to trips to see my daughters ..to working in the yard to going to the movies.

I would love to do this if you still have slots open. I have been thinking of trying it anyway, but will probably procrastinate like crazy because I am on a low budget. If I try it free and like it I will definely buy it again. Oh, and of course I will write about it as well.

Talk about busy!  I have two toddlers!  A 3 year old and a 20 month old!  Between chasing them around and trying to keep up with the laundry, dishes etc. it is nuts.  Plus my husband is a farmer so right now he is working long hours and weekends so I never get a break.  Plus frequently we like to bring dinner out to him-so there's the prep and packing the kids in the car.  Plus we're potty training-both!!  We are running to the potty every 20 minutes and cleaning accidents.  But don't get me wrong I love my family and this is a very fun time-but busy for sure:)  I would love to try this out and review it!!

Being disabled, my day may not sound like it is physically draining, but it's a lot of work sitting in a recliner, typing away while doing chair exercises, balancing (and sometimes
