LOL!<br /><br />**** I drove my son to school who was screaming "I want Daddy!" in the backseat the whole way. Because in his mind Daddy would never have made him get in the car and go to school. Mmm hmm.*****Tanyetta*https://www.blogger.com/profile/14339189484151758472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5961649509652764429.post-72636078090119313352011-11-30T16:42:09.144-08:002011-11-30T16:42:09.144-08:00Trace, once again you have said everything I'v...Trace, once again you have said everything I've been trying to say. I actually teared up while reading because I felt so understood, and as usual, I laughed as well. Some days it doesn't matter as much, but there are certainly those days when I just can't take another minute of it and need to tag out. :-)Bethhttp://cherishwords.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5961649509652764429.post-12551941547434877352011-11-30T16:04:29.654-08:002011-11-30T16:04:29.654-08:00It's not just being the light at the end of th...It's not just being the light at the end of the tunnel, I actually get worried. If my husband says 'I'm leaving now' and 3 hours later he is nowhere to be found, phone not answering (and his work is only 40 min drive away) what am I supposed to think?Tat @ Mum in searchhttp://muminsearch.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5961649509652764429.post-2427193145725672002011-11-30T12:06:41.492-08:002011-11-30T12:06:41.492-08:00Even though I am super lucky to have a husband who...Even though I am super lucky to have a husband who works from home, I totally get the beacon thing. From about 4:00 on, I am watching the clock until he'll be able to cut in and hang out with the little one. By 5:05, I'm getting antsy and wondering why it's taking so long for him to wrap things up for the day. I love that I get to spend my days with our little guy, but man, it can be exhausting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5961649509652764429.post-18747161058384414142011-11-30T11:41:26.009-08:002011-11-30T11:41:26.009-08:00I am the master of avoiding cognitive dissonance. ...I am the master of avoiding cognitive dissonance. CD is the feeling of uncomfortable tension which comes from holding two conflicting thoughts in the mind at the same time. Cognitive dissonance is a very powerful motivator which will often lead us to change one or other of the conflicting belief. The discomfort often feels like a tension between the two opposing thoughts. To release the tension we can take one of three actions:<br />• Change our behavior. <br />• Justify our behavior by changing the conflicting cognition. <br />• Justify our behavior by adding new cognitions. <br />It applies as follows:<br />- Man, know that you cannot expect a warm meal at the end of the day. Don’t imagine steaming pots on your ride home from work. The house will smell like diapers, urine, and dog. Not Beef Wellington, not Chicken Cacciatore, not even like a simple Panini. Buy your dinner on the way home. While you are in line, think of what I might want.<br />- Having to put up with adults all day is overrated. They have no excuse for being stupid. Your kid does. Kids are allowed to be annoying. And there is always a closet you can lock them in. (This was a joke. Don’t call/e-mail me. JOKE).<br />- This time period of absolute dependence is finite. Its end is near. You will one day – believe it or not – yearn for those days. <br />- The secret to a full life is living in the moment. Good or bad, this too shall pass. (Yes, I said it again. It is the ultimate truth). <br />- As hard as it was to stay home, to wait for an adult to have a grown-up conversation, I wouldn’t change those years for the world. My kingdom for a time machine.<br />- Don’t expect man to come home on time. Therefore woman cannot be disappointed.<br />- When you do show up, be cheerful. I had to put up with your spawn all day. <br />- They go to school eventually. Then all will be well again.ABhttp://alexandraburt.comnoreply@blogger.com
