It is a beautiful thing... to wake up in the morning, and... everything is the same. It could be so much worst if everything would change. All of it! At once! No, not good! Count your blessings. I mean it.
....burg is wonderful place on the face of the Earth. Green lawns, well fed smiling kids, their moms in a gym attire driving offsprings to the various activities. They have to. No other choices of travel.
It was bearable for truly yours as well until kids were in elementary school. Now it is obvious that you have to do better with your use of time. To be of use. It becomes almost shameful to go to lunch in the middle of the week with girlfriends including ordering a glass of wine. This glass makes you sleepy, and you are not doing anything productive for the rest of the day. It is a form of socializing. Very much appropriate. (What exactly I am complaining about?)
My favorite TV nightshow host is Jimmy Fallon. He is hilarious in every way. He is the kindest of comics around (in my opinion).
