Days like these


I need to remind myself how lucky I am.
It is dreary outside and in.
But.
I have a husband who all he wants to do is cuddle with me when he gets home despite the fact that

  • I'm still in the shirt I wore yesterday (yes, wore it to bed too)
  •  the house is far from perfect
  • I'm camped in front of our makeshift computer which is our TV, facebooking
  • Dinner not even going
  • Ben still in jammies
He is pretty awesome to me. And I am pretty menopausal right now. That is love folks.

Love you pal.

My current obsession

Raising Cain, The Emotional Lives of Boys. Read it, just do it. It's only 258 pages long and it will change how you view and interact with boys. If you have a boy in your life, whether you're a parent, teacher, mentor or friend, you need to read this.
"...But as their manuscript progressed, Kindlon and Thompson realized a simple "how-to" would not do. "In the end," they write, "we found that the best advice we had to offer was simply to understand boys as they truly are ­ rather than as they appear or as we wish them to be. Our deepest wish is to pull aside the curtain boys so tenaciously draw around themselves and offer you a look inside their hearts and minds. If we succeed, we hope that you will see more clearly the ways in which our culture conspires to limit and undermine their emotional lives. We hope you will understand boys better, and above all, we hope you will enjoy them more"
