today, like every day, i could not be more grateful for the wonderfully supportive women in my life.  they show their love in a wide variety of ways — a listening ear, a sympathetic heart, an amusing distraction and sometimes, when i really need it, when i think i can’t take (insert problem here) a single moment longer, one of them delivers a swift kick in the ass.  knowing when i need what is no mean trick.  so, to those wonderfully clever, amazingly beautiful, mind-bogglingly resourceful, unbelievably strong women — thank you.
