Taking a breath

I am trying it out again, the functioning thing. We'll see how it goes.

I guess I have learned that I can't hide out and wait for things to get better--they probably won't. Instead, I have to learn to cope with the good and the bad.

Frickety-Frack.

Because I hate having to cope. Especially when things aren't really all that bad. I'm not a leper or anything.

It is just the little things on top of little things on top of little things.

How do you cope?

And while you are coping, look at this:
What is the adult-emotional-equivalent of bubbles? Because that would help me cope.

Maybe they need a conversion chart for things like that
bubbles for kids=_____for adults.

And when you figure it out, let me know. It's amazing what bubbles can do for my 2 year old.

Maybe taking that picture is a little piece of it? It's a fabulous picture, of a fabulous kid, taken by a fabulous momma.

Bubbles are euphoric-unless the nursery leaders pull them out and the kids start forming an archaeic, frenzied mosh pit.

I live east of Joe Battle-The "Tierras"? I'm in the 8th ward-would love to get together and dish about EP life, essey? (sure i slaughtered the spanish slang). Love the blog-Kind of weird to run into you like this...Wait...Is this some kind of Dateline sting?

I love that you use frickety-frack. It's fun to say. Your Jooj is a little exotic beauty. Adult equivalent of bubbles for me... working out... I can be frazzled, irritated with the heat...after and during a workout... my mind completely empties.
