Are you going crazy?
 What is the one thing that keeps you sane?

Not sure that anything keeps me sane these days. I love to visit this forum and it really gets me going some days. Others it helps me to see that all moms go through very similary things. So no, nothing keeps me sane.

sane?
I think keeping in touch with other adults keeps me sane. This summer I am staying in touch via phone and e-mail mostly. Starting next week the kids are back in school and we are returning to our weekly breakfast with friends.

1. Getting to church pretty much every week to stay grounded.
2. Spending time with friends. Last September we started a study group with some women from church, meeting weekly at my house. Somewhere it stopped being so much a study, and more just friends getting together. 3. Taking time to read.

Yoga, positive thoughts and good friends who remind me I'm not crazy.
Oh and a (one) glass of red wine with dinner most nights.
