"I just don't want to work"

Hi all... I'm new to the board and I am curious.
I am in my mid twenties, unmarried, no children. I work in an extremely competitive field with many other women my age. Many of us are making six figures and the job is very stressful. We all have a great work ethic, but sometimes when the stress gets really bad, I'll often hear the girls (never the guys) saying things like "Arrgghh... I'm so sick of work. I just want to marry a rich man, have kids, stay home and NOT WORK."....... I was raised by two working parents (two very loving, caring hardworking parents). My mother was very successful in her career, and I feel that when I get married, I will (like my mom) continue to work and raise children at the same time (my mom was definitely "super mom" ---she did it all and was great!)...... My main question: many of the women in my work stay in the position for about 5-7 years and then leave.....the funny thing is...

I'm pretty frugal when it comes to buying groceries (clip coupons and plan my menus around the sale flyers) but I cant believe taking SO much time and energy over food. Its food. Eat it.
Personally I think all that time and energy would be better spent on a pt job so that the food budget isnt so tight, lol.

There ya go.

Right and there is nothing wrong with freezing stuff, that isnt what I was really talking about-I was speaking more of the energy and time required to subsist on $60 a week for groceries.
I eat local produce in the summer, but I really dont want to eat something thats been frozen for several months. And since our season is only about 3-4 months long, I'd be eating freezer burned veggies in february if I went that route. No thanks.
