You know what I don't like about blogs? Having to come up with a name for every single one of them. After a while you just come up with dumb ones only because you don't know what else to call them.

Do you ever think that there is a point when you just run out of things to write about? I do and I'm struggling to write something everyday. I feel bad because sometimes it just feels like you just repeat yourself, kind of like ER for the past few years. No I don't watch ER (or TV) but it's been on for ten years or so.

So, what do you guys think about how the Presidential Race is going so far? I know it's way early but I think you need to start reading up on it so you can see how all the candidates are maturing (or in one case NOT maturing).  I just wish there was a real candidate that actually stood for something and wasn't so wishy washy. Remember, whoever we vote for will be the President for the next four years which can either make or break you financially or in other ways.

Ok off that tirade. So I'm changing my life and trying to make the best of living 2,000 miles from our friends and family. If you are like me then you need to listen to this. I don't care if you can afford it or not but I think if you need help, join a gym. You have to be careful with where you go but join one. Find one that has a good kid care area and find out the youngest they will take kids but do it.

It helps you because you become healthy. You meet new people who are also there for the same reason. The kids get to play with other kids and adults (the care givers). You get time away from the kids. I take my kids a few times a day and they really like it. I was surprised at how well "O" did considering she hated the last time she went to a gym.

Try it and if you don't know how your kids will react, see if they will let you sit with the kids before you sign them in just to see how they do. My gym did that and "O" pushed me out ten minutes after we went in. Now as soon as we walk into the play room she's saying bye to me.
