Our
world is like a boomerang. If we throw anger, anger comes back; if we
throw love, love comes back. If we throw negativity, negativity comes
back; if we throw positivity, positivity comes back.
I resolve to throw happy boomerangs. Right now, I'm getting a happy boomerang. Jimmy Fallon rocks (and I only feel a little guilty for enjoying him so much just 1 day after losing Leno).

Not my best day – good thing it’s the weekend. I will do better come Monday (day 28 if you’re
tracking)
Bedtime fell apart when Dave called with some distressing news about his dad. He needed me, so I plopped the boys in my bed with a movie. The time with him pre-empted all my usual night-time routines, so I now fall into bed grateful for what I did accomplish and for the time we've had with our parents. I wish I could make them magically 40-years-old forever. Alas, it's not possible, but what wonderful experiences they have given us along the way (and we hope that Dave's dad still has many years left with us).
