Katrina Kard

1. Your alma mater offering you a teaching job and subsidized housing; 2. Harvard accepting you to continue your 2nd year of law school with only a phone call; 3. Getting on the front page of your hometown newspaper; and 4. Watching a Texas State Trooper to give you a written warning when you obviously were going way too fast.

I amguilty of number four. When The Husband told me that he was not due back in the office for over two weeks, I had one word (or two) Road Trip. So, we packed up the baby and apparently our good sense and drove to Tucson. The drive wasn't so bad but I am beginning to thing that infant car seats are cruel. How is anyone supposed to drive with a screaming baby in the back?

I packed Addy's favorite toy. But I did not bring her favorite chair, therefore, I am not sure how we are going to get her to fall asleep without rocking her.

Well, off to try once again to calm my screaming, darling child.
