I am the opposite. My first thought is can this task be delegated. I know my plate is full.
Thankfully, ND and I are on the same page with this. Obviously it's not always financially feasible, but if it is, anything we can take off our plates at the house gives us quality time together. For two busy people, that's worth its weight in gold.
Timelies all!
Gary has a meeting downtown today, tomorrow and Wed. that starts at 8 am. Which means a) the alarm goes off at 6 rather than 6:30 and b) I have to get Mr. S dressed and to school. I'm a bit tired, which is probably why I'm only wearing one pair of earrings today. (I realized I forgot the second pair as we were heading to school/daycare. Sigh.)
Um... I really hope Matt is joking about the pig-raising in his apartment building.
No, quite serious. Apparently, they can be litter trained, though I don't envy my neighbors the task of cleaning up after their "miniature pig" when its weight crosses into the triple digits.
I've discovered that pig squeals don't frighten my cats like people noises or dogs barking in teh stairwell do. They get curious and run to my door to listen and sniff.

My exciting news today is that my watching sunset chair was an old camp chair and it ripped so when DH came home I made him go to Lowes and buy 4 new super comfy plastic adirondack type chairs and foot stools for the sunset watching. Although it is more like cresent moon set time I just tested them out. Nice! No matter how insane the day I pretty much always take a sunset break so this is big for me.
Hmmm, you may be onto something. Pork is the one people food they've retained a taste for. Maybe they're going "That's what barbecued ribs sound like!"
Please enjoy this video of Maru yelling at a giant seal pillow while also refusing to let go of his binky.
