Science and Industry

I think I'm doing a little bit better than I was when I last posted. Wednesday was a rough day for me, and I told myself I was just going to have to try harder to keep the winter blues away. So Thursday morning I was contemplating how I could shake things up from our usual routine, when my adorable little monkey said, "Let's go to a museum."

And anyway, I spent the whole time being one of those goody-goody moms who explains every scientific principle behind every single activity (well, the scientific principles I knew about), even though all Nathan wanted to do was roll trucks down ramps and stick balls in vacuum tubes.

And then that evening I went out for drinks with my friend, which I really needed to do.
