Reality Check

Completely blown away (ha ha), by this article in the New York Times: totally outrageous hair stylist prices! We pay a little over $800 for a month's worth of Montessori-based daycare for our son....

A short week, gratefully, chipping away at work, but not overly energized to overachieve (I first wrote "overarchive"--the library context coming out). Mulling over the qualities necessary for my new unit supervisor, and cranking on the position description. Dream candidate, where are you?

Now back to duo-parenting, armed with a new understanding (and appreciation) of what single parents (my own mother included) go through to corral the energy of little ones.

A well-rounded weekend: experienced a cathartic "dark night of the soul" on Saturday, to be comforted and redirected by a totally on target sermon on Sunday. Funny how the Big Man work that way--he knows just what I'm going through and for that I am grateful indeed.
