take the lead man. it 10 am, how much have you pursued thus far this morning?
"it was that lack of PURSUIT that killed her."
It's a school/workday. We get up at 6am, make coffee, feed the pets, let the dog out, wake the boys, get them breakfast, out the door to school. She works this morning, and it is her most stressful day of the week, as she has to work in the morning and then again this evening. She's typically in a stressed, bad mood on Monday mornings, and this morning was no exception. We awoke EARLY this morning, too, at 5:30am by our labrador trying to get into our bedroom and get his head in the garbage can, and refusing to come out.
Fun.
We did talk this weekend about "patterns," and trying to identify what they are. We both agreed that it's the weekdays that kill us -- our roles as mother and father, and our jobs, reduce us to something less than (my first name) and (her first name). Neither one of us find the other very attractive during the week.
