Ok so I am a slacker when it comes to updating this blog lately.
My reason?
Summertime Blues!!
Oh if you have never heard of them they go something like this....
I love you! You are the worst mother ever! I love Summer! This is the worst summer of my life! When I grow up I want to move down the street so we will always live close to each other! I wish Dad stayed home instead of you! You are the best cook ever! You obviously hate me, otherwise you would have never cooked this! Why do we have to shop for back to school supplies... I'm not ready for school because Summer is the best! How many more days until school starts because I miss my friends? Why do I have to go with you to the store, I love hanging out at home? I am BORED BORED BORED!!!
Does any of this sound familiar?
If not then I am guessing you have a babysitter during the day!
These are the recent words my children have said to me in the past few weeks.
I spent boo koo bucks on all these fun summer camps. I drive them all over creation to go to said camps. Then all I hear is complaints! One day will be nice and we will be having a fun time. The next day, or even hour in some cases, is full of hatefullness.
I know my children seem to love me most of the time but lately they sure don't act it. I know that what they say is just out of frustration or hormones but it honestly hurts my feelings. Am I getting soft in my old age? I did just have a birthday in which I turned 41!! I would like to think I am not getting soft; I am just "more aware" of what's going on around me.
Oh, for those wondering I have been maintaining my weight loss. I have not lost anymore in a while. I believe I am at a plateau and one day I will once again drop off.
Of course if my children keep talking to me like this I am more likely to finish off a bottle of wine than exercise!
An old friend said it best....
PEACE
LOVE
