It seems I still have it
Tonight was Knit Night. At Starbucks. Where our usual corner was occupied. It was actually the most crowded I have seen it on a Tuesday night so far. We ended up at the little table in front of the bathroom doors. Since our number went up to 5 at one point, we moved over another little table. When our number reduced to 2, I decided to be nice and put the second table back. I picked the table...
What the f***?!
Becca asked me where her goggles were. I said they were probably in the toy box in the basement playroom. She went down there with Daddy’s camera to look for them. “Mommy, I found a bird.” Just in a normal tone. “Come see.” I go downstairs to see Becca’s imaginary bird.

We do know that he wasn’t on by the time he reached the bottom. For some odd reason, I always thought I wouldn’t have to deal with boys hurting themselves so badly until they were about 8 or so.

Yeah, I suck. I don’t blog much. But, hey, it’s really only about 3 or 4 of you that I am disappointing, right? Just a little humor, not whining. So my husband gets really dry skin in winter. Dry enough that his hands crack and bleed. We have found some $20 a little tube lotion that really helps. Every night I ask him when he gets in bed if he has put on his lotion. (The lotion...
