It was a stay at home kind of day&#8230; though. \u00a0Thankfully we went out to supper and my bitchy mood evaporated.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">As my boys grow up into young men, I am fasincated and a little distrubed as to the kind of girl they seem attracted too. \u00a0Bossy, actually very bossy, catty things. \u00a0This is distrubing. \u00a0Is that how I am? \u00a0Given, I am bossy&#8230; as Sanj kindly pointed out, yet this is out of necessity. \u00a0Otherwise, I&#8217;d say I am a pretty nice girl. \u00a0Why are my boys taken by these kinds of girls? \u00a0I told Max, &#8220;<em>I&#8217;d rather you bring home a boy then Girlie Girl Bossy Pants.&#8221;<\/em> \u00a0Actually, I am not joking! \u00a0My boys are pretty passive, when it comes to the female gender. \u00a0What kind of girls will my boys bring home to be my DIL? \u00a0I&#8217;d better start praying more diligently for my sons and their future wives.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Tomorrow I&#8217;ll have a soft, smooth face to kiss&#8230; as the Movember will be gone!!! \u00a0I&#8217;m so grateful. \u00a0Sanj had a low beard forever. \u00a0Then in the last years&#8230; maybe 7-8 years ago, he shaved it all off. \u00a0Now it just seems strange seeing him with facial hair. \u00a0And it feel awful. \u00a0Ouch!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/livinglovingbreathingboys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/377561_10150566455030828_568215827_11626100_492723680_n.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2542\" title=\"377561_10150566455030828_568215827_11626100_492723680_n\" src=\"http:\/\/livinglovingbreathingboys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/377561_10150566455030828_568215827_11626100_492723680_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"240\" height=\"320\" srcset=\"http:\/\/livinglovingbreathingboys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/377561_10150566455030828_568215827_11626100_492723680_n.jpg 240w, http:\/\/livinglovingbreathingboys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/377561_10150566455030828_568215827_11626100_492723680_n-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/a>I do love this man&#8230; hairy or not. \u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">And I&#8217;m off&#8230; I hope to have the house looking a little Christmasy&#8230; for my Cookie Exchange this Sunday. \u00a0At least it&#8217;s clean (er).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Happy Tuesday!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>And the week has started off with a bang&#8230; Max and I made the trek to Sick Kids yesterday to meet with our doctor. \u00a0The results from the esophageal manometry\u00a0came back and we learned that his esophagus is not contracting &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/livinglovingbreathingboys.com\/?p=2539\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,189,28,6,1,10,32,13,140,15,5,11,55],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/livinglovingbreathingboys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2539"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/livinglovingbreathingboys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/livinglovingbreathingboys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/livinglovingbreathingboys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/livinglovingbreathingboys.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2539"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/livinglovingbreathingboys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2539\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2543,"href":"http:\/\/livinglovingbreathingboys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2539\/revisions\/2543"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/livinglovingbreathingboys.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2539"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/livinglovingbreathingboys.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2539"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/livinglovingbreathingboys.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2539"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
