one more time

A long time ago, At told me he read this thing on reddit about how we sometimes don't know when it's the last time you're doing something. The example they gave was picking up your kid--there's no fancy celebration for that... one day you do and then somehow you never do it again. 

I do know that I was picking up At when he was seven (I only stopped when I got very pregnant with Nu), but I don't even remember when I stopped with Nu.   

So today, I decided that I wanted to pick up my kids one more time. They were game:

Hahaha! Great photos. I have no idea when the last time I picked up my kids was at all. I don't even have a general ballpark idea. I wonder if I could do it now? Probably not.

I love this. And you are strong!

Nicole it probably "helps" that my adult kid has lost a ton of weight recently due to stress...

But yes, StephLove (thank you!!) I felt... powerful :)!

This is cool.

"bad idea, right?"

More meetings today, including two terribly fraught ones... including one in the boardroom where 99% of the portraits on the wall are of old...
