Mom just took schlepping the boys to them off my plate. "I think you have too much on your plate. I'm done tutoring, I can go get them."
I love my mom. I wasn't going to ask.
Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Dang, that's a helluva dinner, Matt! Beats my two pieces of cold and lonely gefilte fish.
That's a whole lot to handle, Steph. At least some of it is happy making (if still stressful), and you and Tim can lean on each other through the rest. That is of the good.

Hee, David.
Better thing you took care of biz when they had a crisis on your first day.

Matt, that is A Dinner.
Aw, Tep, I'm sorry that you are at the overwhelming point. It must feel like a struggle just to make it through the day.
We went bowling today, where I had a mimosa and watched the kids play. It was fun-ish.

I'm scrolling through old pics of mine on flickr. I found this picture which is my proof that Noah looks Just Like I Did: [link] (Pic of Noah in front of his bug research for comparison: [link] Everytime people say that Grace looks just like me, I can't agree because Noah is my spitting image from childhood.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
TWO CUTIEHEADS
Indeed.
Kat, I had one of those cakes, too.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

What she said. I'm sorry it's so overwhelming right now.
I've read some forums that refer to it as "low carb flu," with brain fog and other symptoms.
And yet people eat like this for years? I don't think I could. Today we went to the farmers market and bought lots of yummy fruit for everyone else, and some yummy chili/lime pistacios for me.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
so when we had to buy a car we had no idea what we wanted. We were thinking used. But we found the car guy. a guy in my neightborhood that does all the looking around andnegoiating once you know what you want . 500.00 for a used car , nothing for a new ( he dealership pays him )
In the end - he convinced us to go new - get what we want , we keep cars forever and - the used car we wanted , really not much cheaper than new...
but we still had the ford dealer that tried the 'what can we do to get you in car today' foolishness. I said 'nothing' he said 'why not' I said 'im careful'
He basicly gave me a list of reason not to be care ful. I just looked at him. When Matt came back from where ever he was the sales guy tried to use the same line on Matt. he got three words out before I killed his voice with the look. That was fun
