Ms. Empathy

Paul's latest complaint is how it seems like he's going to the doctor and dentist all the time.

I, of course, have absolutely no sympathy for the Old Man. Between me and the four kids -- braces, pregnancy, etc., etc., I am really there all the time.

Food

I had a great score on the clearance rack of a nearby grocery store yesterday, so I'm cooking up a storm. The 13-year-old's recent vegetarianism poses very few cooking challenges because I've been vegan and vegetarian before myself. It's more logistics. I hope to have a bunch of things prepared -- or close to it -- before baby arrives.
