Knitting, Work, and Star Jones
I have been teaching myself to knit and guess who is also learning- my husband. One of the problems that we have been having in our relationship is that we don’t get to do alot of things together. I think many married couples who work full-time and have children run into this problem. We get so overwhelmed with life that we forget to enjoy each other. So, we decided to do one thing that I love together and one thing that he loves together. He is learning to knit and I am learning football. I am going to have a fantasy football team and everything. How cool is that. LOL. I have played fantasy baseball and fantasy basketball, but never footbal, so this will be interesting. I know it is only a start, but this is a step in the right direction for us.
I start work again on Monday, August 20 (also my Mom birthday). I’m looking forward to it because I think working makes me a better Mom. I get bored so fast so I end up being lazy and rating too much. And, when you have a lively strong-willed 15.5 month old, it is hard to not get frustrated. When I work I find that I enjoy Mommyhood more. Am I alone in that?
BTW- have you seen Star Jones’ new promo for her CourtTV show? She look horrible.
I think that is so lovely that the two of you are willing to share the other’s hobby. It will give you something to talk about and something to do with your hands while you watch the sports shows.
My problem with Star Jones…whether she is thick or thin…is that I have always believed she is ugly on the inside. No amount of weight loss is going to change that.
