What's new with me (the condensed version):

• I'm kind of a stress beast right now, with three major events in the works this month.
• We still haven't really seen spring here and there's still snow in my backyard. That's really depressing in March.
• I'm finally seeing some results from the marathon training, but it means that I need to go out and buy new clothes. This would make many people happy, but I hate shopping.
• Do I sound grumpy or what?

What I've been pondering:
We are parenting in such a different way than our parents. Are we stunting our kids by our ever-presence?
