Rose dropped her nap when she was 2, and it was a bummer. The bright side, though, is that it was nice to feel like we had a little more freedom -- that we no longer had to race home to put her to sleep by noon or 1pm, or wait around for her to wake up if we had somewhere to go.
Still, I'm hoping Jane doesn't stop napping for a while! And I'm sorry that ltc seems to be getting ready to stop. Can you have her do "quiet time" in her crib or her room for an hour (or a half hour, or whatever she'll allow)? Note: we tried that with Rose and it really didn't work at all, but several other parents have told me they were able to get their kids to do it.
I survived getting my hair colored with a migraine. Not horrible, but not recommended.
oh, and Steph, I started watching Riverdale. I swear that pilot had so much of a Veronica Mars feel. SO MUCH was covered without it feeling like an exposition-fest. I kinda love that the narrator was not one of the main aspects of the pilot, wonder if he becomes more key to the action as this goes on.
I love my cracked-out show. It gets SO bonkers, but in a good way.
Where is Riverfdale discussed?
I think here, because it doesn't fall in any of the narrower categories (procedural, cable drama, genre show, etc.).
Or, you know, my Facebook wall.
It seems kind of genre-esque to me. But I've only seen the pilot so far, my opinion is based on even less than it usually is.
Boxed Set is sci-fi/fantasy. I guess I should have said that instead of genre.
So all the parents are awful, that's just accepted right? Batshit crazy awful.
There are a couple (literally, 2) good parents, which becomes more apparent as the show goes on. But otherwise, they are total garbage human beings (though a little nuanced [A LITTLE]).

I wonder if those parents were supported by day care in that? I was also one of those daycare kids not-napping at naptime, so I imagine I was used to having to be quiet for an hour with just a little adult interaction. (I don't actually remember my own time in daycare, but when I worked at a daycare center, we didn't do much for the no-nappers -- maybe let them draw? They definitely had to be quiet, and the staff definitely had other stuff to do in that time.)
I mean, also some parents are just lucky.
