Drawing it to a Close...

Good grief.  I am never going to win Mother of the Year at this rate.  My children are surely going to drag me onto the Montel show some day.  I feel like I'm at this odd place in life.  I have a 21 year old married son....several kids...and a 9 year old son.  Where do I fit in?  Do I fit in with the parents of 21 year olds?  Am I in the "we have married kids' group? or do I fit into the 'I have an elementary schooler' group?  I don't know how to dress.  I don't want to wear those horrible matronly clothes that just scream "I've given up!" and I shouldn't really wear clothes that are for younger moms.  I don't want to wear the same things my daughter-in-law wears.  Of course, she looks adorable every minute of ever day...but is she going to feel creepy if we show up at church with similar outifit on?

Well, anyway.  Maybe I'll just wear sweatpants every day, stop washing my hair and wear light blue eyeshadow and pastel pink lipstick.  Niiiice.

It's obvious now that I really have nothing to say tonight, isnt' it?  Rick is still at the hospital with his dad and I have nobody to talk to.  It's only YOU!! 

Guess I'll just sign off and finish watching "Real Life Housewives of Atlanta".  Yes, I am high class.

Ohhhhh, I watch Real Housewives, funny...it's good to laugh at someone else for a change!.

Yes, I gave up long ago. I am the old mother of a young girl and I see the other Moms...yikes, I couldn't wear any of what they have on. So, I'm Yoga pants and black T's. That's it, not going anywhere anyway no how ;)
