2) Support groups! Today was the toddler Tu Bishvat party at the JCC, and it was great to be among other parents. I saw all the usual toddler/parent friends, and then Ginger and her two girls and I went out to lunch. Xander couldn't care less about all the people, he was in love with the Bounce House.
3) Naps. Jonathan watched Xander yesterday while I slept for three hours in the middle of the day. It's amazing how sleep can revitalize me.
4) Reading for fun! I just finished Phillipa Gregory's The White Queen, which, to be honest, I didn't enjoy very much. I know she's gotten rave reviews for her historical novels, but I found this one at least to be too political, with not enough character development. Not to mention she killed off (or history killed off) all the characters I liked, and left me with the manipulative annoying ones. I also read The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook though and LOVED it. It's geared for kids, meaning it was fun reading and I can actually make the recipes. I put post-it notes on all the recipes I want us to make, some with Xander, some without. Unsurprisingly, they're mostly desserts. :)
5) And I'm trying very hard to think of a #5, but I can't. Make one up and email me!

Couldn't #5 be that you're in the homestretch on your thesis? That's gotta be a stress-reliever.
Love and hugs,

Oy! I neglected to note that you said "e-mail me" -- Sorry.

I'd like to recommend a movie. I just saw "Pascali's Island" with Ben Kingsley. A suspenseful thriller! I enjoyed it very much.

Haha Savta, no worries! And yes, #5 is that my thesis PROPOSAL is in the home stretch. The thesis itself isn't started!
And great, we'll add the movie to our list, thanks!
