Trying a Different Approach:

*humpty dumpty is slowly climbing back up the wall, broken and emotionally drained, but steadily climbing...

Things that have made me happy in the past 24 hours:

1. Listening to all my saved messages from PrincessReva anything from singing the Oscar Meyer weiner song to screaming HOW IS THIS FAIR?!--click. (random as ever and just made me laugh)!

2. Enjoying our new summer hours--NO SCHOOL! no alarms at 6:25a.m./no backpacks with snacks/ no checking the school lunch menu to make sure the munchkins will actually EAT something that day/ no setting clothes out the night before, along with breakfast by the door in case we're running late/ no stress about missing the bus in the afternoon/ NADA.

3. Learning to relax when N8 has the kids. He won't break them. They deserve to get all riled up before bedtime. They get to play chase and scream and be loud with Daddy. Life is actually quite normal for once.
This is a good thing.

    I hate the "I'm board" mantra that comes with it.
