| A double goal for 2004: to keep track of the books I'm reading -- as my dad has been urging for years-- and to find time in my Mama crazed days to reflect on life as it's happening. So here on this site, you'll be able to read my book reviews and check out my MamaBlog. |

| Work |
| I am still a part-time roving social work researcher. I came to this way of life through trying to find a way to be at home with Eleanor as much as possible and still pay the cookie bill. Now I read that moms who are employed part-time are more stressed than full-time stay at homes or full-time employeds. Oh well. I actually love the hodge-podge of work I'm doing. |
