It’s been a rough parenting day. My wife went back to work yesterday, and our 2 year old is pissed about it. She’s been checking every box of the terrible twos. It’s especially bad for me because the Cipro I’ve been taking the last few days has fixed the original problem but made me sick in other ways. Ugh.

112 minutes until bedtime.

Awww. ... hopefully the little one will adjust fairly quickly, once she realizes that the tantrums don't change anything. It's hard on them, but hard on Mom, too. And Dad. But we know they aren't able to give a flip about that.

Hope you get to feeling better soon!

Children are highly adaptable. It will pass. Don’t be to eager about bedtime approaching. They seem to sense that and will take forever to go to sleep.

Maggie is similar about her bedtime ...

Not Sadie, when its bedtime she'll get in front of you and stare at you till you get up and go to bed!

Mary Lou and Gary recently discovered that Lantana is poisonous to dogs. Today, Gary spent the day removing a 25 y/o Lantana while trying to preserve a ton of vines that was growing through the Lantana. If you’re not familiar with Lantana, the leaves are very hairy and sticky and collect dust and spider webs. It was a tedious and thankless job. But it is done and three 60 gallon green waste barrels were filled. Gary has showered and is recharging his depleted batteries with some fresh guacamole and a pear cider.

That’s funny. Maggie is like a little kid and hides or runs out her doggie door when she senses that we’re calling it a day.

All of our fur kids have been that way. Lola, the Boxer, would try to "talk" to my wife when it was time. Millie was similar to Sadie but she would get between me and the TV, and give me the stink eye stare. Very annoying.

Survived. She was so sweet during bed time. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Aren’t you too young to be taking Cialis.

Meh. I think Manfred is trying to play both sides. He thinks the punishment is warranted but doesn’t want the series decided on it.

Personally, I think he should had to sit out tonight. That sends the message much more clearly, even if it was just one game.

My dog will try to herd me into the bedroom when he’s tired. He’s decided that he must be within 2 feet of me at all times when I’m home.

The suspension should be immediate. Zero tolerance for that bullshit.
