It sucks, and you are being an awesome wife!!<BR/><BR/>But, I also think that you deserve a break too!! And since blogher is in Chicago and totally driveable for you, I am so saying that you need to go!!! And hey, if you end up needing a roomie, let me know! Chicago is one of my most favorite cities!Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04757190486746869272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390236678783638686.post-47069520598792530092008-11-21T20:44:00.000-06:002008-11-21T20:44:00.000-06:00I hope your week goes well.

I tried to stress there's wonderful things about being a woman, but it was a hard sell. I think if he heard this post he'd be doubly glad. We do make it easy on them, don't we? Even if you do go to Blogher, I would bet there's a good chance you'd be the one to end up making food for them to eat while you're gone, making sure there's always someone there with the boys (like if he has to work, etc.) Again, we do make it easy on them to be them man, although they do work awfully hard for us.<BR/><BR/>Hope you have a good week.
