Lightening Up

Parenting Children is an amazing journey. And like any journey that lasts more than three days, there are times when the road may be obscured by fog. On days when I wake up with thick, low-hanging fog before my eyes, the day 40 of summer in San Francisco kind of fog, I know what to do. I call up my Inner Comic.
Like many performers, she is often sleeping in. I don't wake her. No need for two grouchy perspectives.
I simply suggest that during the day, she alert me to funny or unusual ways of looking at life. She never fails to point out a hilarious conversation on the bus, Nature's delightful wonders, or a fresh way to view myself. Once I'm laughing at myself, I know I've made it through the fog.

That is cool.

Regarding if I ever wake up grumpy? I usually say no way. I just let her sleep.
