Just heard John and Kate (plus 8) are divorcing - What do you think? Surprised? I'm not. Having that many kids has got to be stressful - hell, having one child is stressful at times. And to go public with your family like they have brings on all sorts of other stresses, too.
Comments Nesters?
There's a new documentary out called The Goodnight Kiss, or something along those lines. I read up on it on the Net and it appears that it's a walk-up call to parents about how oral s*x is the new goodnight kiss.
Today was a whirlwind day! I ran for 45 minutes, go the kids fed and off to school, picked up my 18 y/o (home from college! Yeah!), took apart his weight bench and made it all fit in my car (fun, right?), took a shower, took him shopping for shirts, took him grocery shopping, dropped my car off to get it repaired (hate that), got my son some lunch, and dropped him off at my mother's where he's house/pet sitting for a month. Got back just in time to get the boys from school, do some real work, and make dinner - It flew by!!
What did you ladies to today?

Parent Can Be Proactive
It’s often been the issue in the back of my mind, and resides in the “what if” category of conversations that I’ve had with my husband with no definitive answers – and that is – what happens if I get sick or need medical attention?
