Never! Or, for those potty-mouth readers, how about "eff-ing never!" IT NEVER ends. I have two adorable,but OMNI-present little women who shadow me like Punxsutawney Phil on a winter-laden year.
While I have subliminally known this for some time, it is at very odd and unique moments when it hits me like a ton of bricks. I'll hear a co-worker complain about the $20K she's throwing down for her daughter's approaching nuptials after just paying off her college tuition: that's 56,000 clams in one year. I immediately reached for the tums.
If I knew their father would be helping out...someday...I wouldn't be so perplexed. I'm looking into every financial product available for future expenses such as college (remember folks: EDUCATION is everything! And the one paper of ownership that can't be repossessed or taken away). But anyone with a grain of common sense can look at this current living situation and agree it's not exactly a "win-win" for all parties involved - or lack there-of:)
I apologize for my absence and somewhat inconsistent rants. I won't lie: my day job can be a bit stressful. Ironically, I used to be known as the girl-with-a-great-sense-of-humor-who-dances-like-no-ones-watching. That sounds very "Dances With Wolves," but me in a nutshell!
While I can still break it down like it's nobodies bizness, there is a weight on my shoulders that feels oppressive in force. And while I put on a happy face for my girls (at least 80 percent of the time), who wouldn't be "Bitter: Party of One!" every so often.
At least I have my girlish sensuality. Actually, that was meant to be a question. At least I have my girlish sensuality?
