So that is something I've been practicing. It sounds simple and obvious, but it is making a difference for me. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

This must be Thursday. . . .: Going Home
http://inconclusiveexperiences.blogspot.com/2014/11/going-home.html
This must be Thursday. . . . I never could get the hang of Thursdays." - Douglas Adams. Saturday, November 1, 2014. Towards the end of the last school year, I packed up the girls and headed out to pick up the boys from school. They can walk home alone, and do about half the time. The rest of the time I pick them up. Usually walking, occasionally with the car if we have somewhere else to go. Their old school had uniforms. Their new school does not. It makes me sad,. It gave me a lot to think about. Ho...

This must be Thursday. . . . I never could get the hang of Thursdays." - Douglas Adams. Sunday, March 8, 2015. No power in the 'verse can stop me. Let me begin this post by taking you back in time. Just a short hop to last fall, right around the time that school was starting. Husband was also in the very final stages of his PhD adventure. This means pressure and deadlines and dissertation, but it also means almost done! We weren't quite at the " Sweet Spot. It's ok to laugh at my naive optimism. I don't ...

This must be Thursday. . . . I never could get the hang of Thursdays." - Douglas Adams. Sunday, January 18, 2015. I make my kids share. You can find all kinds of theories out there about why that is a bad thing or a good thing, but at our house it doesn't matter. We have five kids close in age in small space and we have no choice. We have to share. And of course, they don't always like it, but here are a few things we do that make things easier. You want to trade me the green train for the blue one?

This must be Thursday. . . .: Parenting Advice
http://inconclusiveexperiences.blogspot.com/2014/12/parenting-advice.html
This must be Thursday. . . . I never could get the hang of Thursdays." - Douglas Adams. Sunday, December 28, 2014. Saw this pose on Pinterest. Can we re-create it? Ok, now there is crying. Most parenting mistakes only result in more work for the parent, and not in long-term damage to the child. That parent responding to the child's tantrum with giving in or a tantrum of his or her own? Probably not. It just makes his growing up years harder on his parents. So if reading about what we do is helpful, great...

This must be Thursday. . . . I never could get the hang of Thursdays." - Douglas Adams. Sunday, August 9, 2015. Romantic aspirations of a four-year-old. The girls have been in bed for 20 minutes, but are still talking. Me: "Stop talking. It is time to sleep! Child #4: "But Mom! I'm just trying to decide who I should marry! Me: "I'm pretty sure that can wait. Stop talking so you and your sisters can sleep! Child #4: "But Mom! It will only take a second! Me: "Go to sleep! Overheard Child #4 and her father.

This must be Thursday. . . .: Meditations on Housework
http://inconclusiveexperiences.blogspot.com/2015/04/meditations-on-housework.html
This must be Thursday. . . . I never could get the hang of Thursdays." - Douglas Adams. Sunday, April 12, 2015. So the new house has much better carpet than the old one. Its newer, higher quality, and specifically designed so the dirt doesn't show (much). And the layout is such that the inevitable spills from every single meal are not immediately tracked into the living room where any casual visitor can be grossed out by our mess. At first I thought it was great, because who needs more work, right? Somet...
