House Rules

Ok, I'm a rule person. And I'm learning that following my own rules can be, and I dread to say it, somewhat subjective. It's fine for me to make the rule "this is a no-drinking household" when the kids are obnoxiously drunk. But it's a far different story when I've had a stressful day at work and all I want is a glass of wine with dinner. The better rule is, "do as I say, not as I do." I'm not proud of it.
