What a fun day - had some of the girlies over for lunch, wine and whatever crafting suited whoever. Mostly just to talk and laugh - and I am so grateful for them. So easy to say what you mean - and not feel judged and silly. If only everyone had such good pals.
One of our topics was if you could have plastic surgery - no worries about cost, recovery or anything else - would you? And everyone would. No boobs, no botox - mostly tummy tucks to get rid of the baby excess. Maybe pants would be a little more comfortable, and wearing something a little tight wouldn't create a bout of self doubt.
Another was adolescent angst and worry - all of us have kids that range in age from 7-19; mostly boys. The emotional rollercoaster is crazy - any way to ease the transition? Make sure they feel OK about themselves? Seems like it is more intense than when we were at that stage, or maybe because it is in the distant past we don't remember quite how overwhelming it feels. Sometimes all you can do is pray and hope, and that is really difficult. At least mine still hug me.
Have a great weekend, it is 30 degrees here and it feels fabulous!!!!
