Gas Prices



Gas prices tick me right off. It almost makes me not want to go anywhere. But since I have absolutely no sit in me.....I still go out. But really - $65.00 to fill the tank is just nuts!

Mommy to Mom

A couple of days ago my sweet boy came to me with a sad look on his face. I asked him what was wrong and he told me he was fine. He continued to stare at me with a pair of puppy dog eyes and then grabbed my waist and just hugged me. Nothing wrong my foot! I again asked him if he was OK. He told me he didn't want to tell me because it might hurt my feelings. I assured him that he could tell me anything. I told him my feelings wouldn't be hurt. (and if they did get hurt I would never tell him!) I told him that if something was bothering him that I'd really like him to tell me so that we could talk about it and try to figure it out. Finally he told me. "Well you know how you always call yourself Mommy? I was wondering if you could stop. I'm six years old now and the name Mommy is kind of baby-ish. I want you to just be mom now". Really bud?? Darnit! I have love-hate feelings towards him growing up. I love watching him grow and learn and move on to the next stage. I hate watching him grow and move out of each stage. I'm going to try really hard to be Mom instead of Mommy from now on. When did your kiddos quit calling you mommy?

Starting Over

I use to blog. I wasn't very good at it. I wasn't faithful in updating. I did have several posts though and I did enjoy it. Notice I have deleted every single post. I was getting some heck from, ah hem, an unwanted reader. Yes, I know what 'www' stands for. I understand this is the WorldWideWeb! But Seriously? You took the time to google my name and find the blog? Anyways! I have now decided what the hob do I care? If you really think I'm that cool then great. Read along. So! I'm starting over. I'm coming back to blogging. I'm going to try to do better this time around too. I'm even going to have my sister hook me up with a new name, a new background, updated pictures, a blog list, maybe even a button....not that I even know what a button is! (she has to do all the work since I'm not savy in this department at all)
