Definitely have a friend over, Kate. amych did me a total solid once and came over for dinner with me and the kids (aged 8 months and 3) while mr. flea was out of town once, and it was soooo helpful. Dillo needed me to go to sleep, and Casper was NOT interested in being left out by herself, but with amych to watch Iron Giant with her it worked, and made all the difference. (Especially since I had nearly left her at the nearest police station earlier that afternoon for really egregious behavior.)
I've got two words that are going to make all the pain go away. Miniature Golf.

Because books.
Friends to keep you and Rose company would be awesome. I know I leaned on my friends when Jake was little, a LOT. (He was the first baby for all of us, so he was this adorable novelty, and I took shameless advantage of it.)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I am so sorry, Scrappy.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday P-C!
I'm so sorry, Scrappy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm sorry, Scrappy. Best of luck to your mom.

So sorry, Scrappy. I'll be keeping your mom in my thoughts.
