Carnival Music Intermission

For those of you who enjoy hearing our trials and tribulations, this post will disappoint. Despite the hair-pulling and penchant for nudity from Joey, life is pretty sweet. Here's the thing: everything is relative, and one year ago we were a family of five (plus smelly old Oscar) living in 1000 square feet, trying to sell our house by owner, working three jobs between the two of us, and oh, the baby was still nursing 472 times a day.

Here are all the ways life doesn't suck:

• Oscar channels his inner kitten when milk gets spilled.
• We sleep all night, every night.
• No one lives in nor receives nutrients from my body.
• Nothing hurts.

The bar is pretty low, and the antidepressants are clearly doing their job, but WOW, life is sweet. Once the hubby goes back to work and Jack is out of school, the carnival music will resume at full throttle, I am sure. CHEERS! to a little break in the insanity.
