You've done that often enough that I don't feel qualified to offer advice.

But the things that it seemed to help P to hear when she was coping by herself were things like

• Lower your expectations.
  
• Eat takeout.
  
• Choose your battles.
  
• Keep complaining to us so we know how much to appreciate you.
  
• Tell the kids I will take them to a movie when I get home (and keep them out for a long time, so you can have the afternoon to yourself.
  

Hang in, and keep us posted.

Thanks. We're not eating takeout, but the next best thing: Banana Chocolate Chip Waffles made with Bisquick.

Oooh. That sounds really good. Especially from a kid point of view!

Can I have Pecans in mine too?

you're the best!


I'm glad I've already eaten or I'd be off to the store like a klansman to a cross burning.
