We’re all friends so I’ll be completely honest - I’m a couple martinis and maybe a couple glasses of wine into this post. It was a good night. I’m in Florida, there were tears on the plane - and then I focused on work. It’s a vicious cycle really - but one I atleast recognize, [...]

* Singing “The Wheels On The Bus” with my almost two-year-old
*Watching her eat Lucky Charms (or the generic version) for the first time and promptly pick out all the marshmallows and then ask for “more?” - they learn early

I’ve been losing momentum lately. It’s all going south and I’m having a hard time stopping the spiral.
Finances are getting lacksidascial - how do we get the drive back? When we’re frustrated with each other we seem to take it out that way. How do we get un-frustrated? How do we all accomplish what we [...]
