    Apparently, House and Senate Republicans think that during an impeachment investigation is a great time to do so.

    Personally, I agree with Don Barzini about the grandkids.  And if you can connect with the "Child in the Adult" in any other adult, that is also a fine time.

    Sometimes with children.  But still...the children are looking for an adult example. I find an adult who acts childish, very unbecoming.  Unless you hare having a pillow fight with your spouse!  hahahahaha

    And that pillow fight is a precise and perfect example of two adults interacting with each other's "Child in the Adult." This post was edited by tom jackson at November 20, 2019 6:41 AM MST

    When appearing on the WORLD STAGE and announcing that he doesn't see how it could be Russia after Putin was so strong and all.

    Personally, I think we "adults" can learn a lot from children.

    We adults can quit pretending that we know everything and that we know it all better than children.

  • Imagination can be a fun way to survive the workday.  Envisioning the pile of work on my desk as my arch nemesis. In my mind an epic battle playing out while those walking by me see me staring at a screen and punching a few keys on a keyboard.
