@edith i wish you could get a steroid injection for language knowledge!

Some time management tips:

There really are tons and tons of free Spanish audio resources on the Internet, including many ones which can be downloaded: podcasts, online courses, entire documentaries even. They will save you a trip to the library!

If you really want it that bad, you may have to prioritize - there are even podcasts on time management! - so you can spend half an hour each day behind your computer learning Spanish.

A couple of years ago, I started out watching the news every day on TVE while my dinner was cooking on the stove, and I can assure you that the effort does pay off in the end. It doesn't matter if you don't understand everything in the beginning because listening to the news day in and day out will help you to expand your vocabulary very fast. After all, it's often about the same subjects and the footage will also give you a clue. For instance, I remember the Prestige oil disaster very well because I learned lots of new ecology-related words that winter just by watching the news. When you hear the word 'chapapote' (oil slick) over and over again every day, it will get stuck in your mind!

'EspaƱa Directo' is not for beginners but it can be watched online, which means you can replay the videos as often as you want:

I also have a small CD player which I can take with me to other rooms, so I can listen to stuff while I'm doing my household chores.

Or you could put on your ¡Pod while you are cleaning house, which leaves you with some extra time to sit behind your computer to look for more Spanish stuff online. It's like killing two birds with one stone really. The possibilities are endless!
