I should really call this post "Freakin' Cheerios"!!!
My kids loved Cheerios when they were little and apparently my teenage daughter still does!
The only thing is that when they were little, the cereal pieces tended to more or less stay with the child. I always found Cheerios tucked in the folds of their clothes or stuck in their chair...easy enough to clean up.
Now....oh boy...NOW!...I find them all over the place!!! It is like my daughter leaves a trail wherever she goes! On the table, under the table, down the hall, in the living room, in MY bedroom, in her bedroom, under furniture, in the furniture!!! The cats also like to play hockey with them!!!
It is driving my crazy!!!!!!!

Fail!
Apparently I am failing as a Mom...
Every time I make a mistake which embarrasses my teenage daughter, she announces "fail"!
For example, while paying for my purchases the other day, I whipped out my credit card and slid it through the machine. It would not accept my card. After trying a couple of times, the cashier said she would try through the cash register. After sliding the it through, she looks down at my card and hands it back to me.
"We can't accept grocery cards" she announces.
I look down at my card and realize I had handed her my supermarket rewards card instead of my credit card.
"Fail!" announces my daughter.
Arriving home, she can't wait to share the story with her brother.
"Fail!" she announces again.
"You know, that's not good for my self esteem!" I retort.
So I had a Mommy moment at the store. So I embarrassed her (yet again).
"It's all your fault anyway. The both of you are sucking my brain cells right out of my head!" I tell them!
Then again, maybe I am passing as a Mom. Don't teenagers think everything their parents do is embarrassing?!!!!

I got proofed!!!
I got proofed today & I'm a bit miffed over this!
Ok, I have to admit I am in my mid 40's with grey hairs blending in with blonde ones (all caused by my kids) and some "fine" wrinkles (also a product of my kids or so I tell them)! I can't sleep, I forget what I came into a room for, my body hurts when a storm is coming & all of a sudden I need reading glasses!
How in the world could someone mistake me for a 21 year old! He should have been asking me if I needed help crossing the street!
Being proofed has always gotten to me in the past. I don't know why, but it insults me. My friends tell me I should be happy I look younger. For once, I would like to look my age (or maybe a few years younger)!
Hmmmph!!!!!
