MARCH ALREADY
here we are in march and I've not made one entry. Not even the reading list updates. Apparently having a kid is more work than one would think. I expect to post more often. The Kid is six months old already. It really, really doesn't seem like its been anywhere near that long yet it also feels like he's always been a part of my life. I could no imagine what it would be like without him.
I have also decided that I would not make a good single parent. After taking care of him for most of last weekend by myself I noticed I was getting a little frazzled; and that was only two days. I knew, or at least realistically expected, being a single parent was a tough deal, but only after two days I have a new respect what a single parent must have to go through. I am totally only still just guessing what it would be like. Extrapolating from my two day experience I don't know I'd be able to hack it if something were to happen to my wife. Most days I'm sharing the duties and I feel as if I have little wind down time. to have none would be extremely difficult for me. I try to comfort myself by, besides reassuring myself that it's unlikely that I would ever be a single parent, I try to comfort myself with the thought that if I get frazzled it's because I know I have an option to "hand him off" to the wife.
I don't expect to get much reading accomplished this year, but as The Kid gets older I think I'll be able to get more reading time.
