Taking Monday Off

by Amanda on October 26, 2008
category: The Mom Crowd news

I am taking Monday off from blogging, because I am still recovering from spending four days with my mother. My parents were in town this weekend for a Vietnam reunion that my dad attended. After every visit it makes me glad that I live four hours away from them. They seem to suck all my energy from me with their Eeyore attitudes and constant bickering. It is hard work to stay out their fights when they try to pull my husband and I into them to take sides.

I am glad that my mom got to see her granddaughter even though she questioned my parenting skills. She really didn’t see why I don’t want my 17 month old to have diet coke.  So after wearing my hard shell and letting comments roll off my back all weekend, I am pooped. I am taking the day off and driving a total of 6 hours roundtrip to go see my oldest friend’s new baby.

    I am now searching for a two-for-one massage special in SA. Maybe we can go together when I get back :)

    Thanks, ladies. Sunday was totally a good Sabbath and I had a great day visiting my friend today. I think I can move on now. Dawn, you are right. I does take a day or two to get those knots out.

    Sharon, you are too funny. That sounds awesome. I am looking forward to seeing you next month!

    Amanda, I miss you!
    I’ve been way remiss in keeping up with my favorite blogs.

    But….I’m BACK!

    (Did you miss me, didja?)

    Sorry for the stressful weekend, I hope you managed to regroup today!
