Hack [hak] Verb –
To jury-rig or improvise something inelegant but effective, usually as a temporary solution to a problem.
I am scrambling to hack a new childcare situation for tonight now that Thomas is sick.
—
Twelve hours from now I am to report to The King Cat Theater for my presentation at Ignite Seattle on The Sanity Hacks of a Stay At Home Mom.
However.
Thomas woke up at 5:30 this morning coughing and screaming from an ear ache, which means I likely can’t take him to my friend’s house where he will infect all her children.
So if ever I needed a sanity hack, IT WOULD BE RIGHT NOW.
Uh, put him on a boat to Bainbridge Island where he can hang out with other sick kids? Wish I could help….
Praying.
You are going to do great tonight. I wish I could be there because I really think you are quite funny. No pressure, though.
i like the definition inclusion here….that should be a regular addition. 😉
…and you are gping to do great tonight!!
