My college son, the one who wrecked his car several months ago, bought a car today. Yay! He's high on life. He traded the wrecked car and paid some hard earned and saved cash for the car. The car doesn't have paint on it...... but it's all primed and ready.........he's already called his old body shop teacher from high school to see if he can use the shop to paint the car. Shop teacher said yes! Now he's double high on life. I'm happy for him!
Way back when boyfriend first told me he loved me I asked him if he'd do anything for me. He said yes.........so today when we spoke on the phone I asked him if he'd shave his arm pits for me. It's not that I like men with hairless arm pits. I just wanted to see what his answer would be, and if he said no I wanted to remind him of what he had said in the past.. But he said "yes, i'll shave my pitts AND my groin. lol. That fucker knew I was testing him.
Today while doing the dishes I lost myself in deep thought about when my children were younger..........all the diaper bags I had to pack, making baby formula, sterilizing bottles, all the doctor appointments, all the laundry, and setting out school clothes, all the baseball, football, cheerleading, dance, gymnastic, practices and games......helping with homework, getting the kids back and forth to school, combing tangles out of hair, dealing with hair lice and emergency room visits...picking up toys, preparing meals........and I remembered how much I liked it. Would I want to go back? Maybe for a day so that I could hug my kids again as little kids, but I like living in the here and now better.
