I hate being so depressed!

So we are back from Florida, nice visit with my daughter. She has been gone for 7 years, enlisted and gone 2 days after her 18th birthday (Christmas Eve). It seems that every time she leaves or I leave her I can't say good-bye. It hurts my heart to have to leave. She is grown, married and has her own life, but I never miss her any less. Everyday, I wish she was home, but I thank GOD she is not fighting overseas. I guess the depression of leaving her will be her for its usually couple of days.....my poor hubby, he feels my hurt!

Tell me how I manage, without my momma

Let me tell you I am here with my daughter in Florida, and for two days she has asked me, "Mom, how do I???" "What do I do with..." "Where can I..." I have answer for everything, hey I am a mom, but damn it the minute my mother walks in the door, I revert to the same behavior. "Mom, how do I?" Awesome to know we can always stay children, and beautiful that I still have my momma to ask :)

Talk about STRESS!!!!

I actually had to stay home from work cause I look hideous!!!! Hives from head to toe...yes I am stressing, school, Christmas, family, WORK which is the worst and so my body reacts with friggin hives...WTF!!!! So I got a shot and complete some things on my TTD list...but is it enough??? Is it ever enough???? I need to either find another job or start letting things roll off my back and just smile at those who hate....hey I like that idea!!!

Christmas shopping...when did it become so ridiculous

We spent the day at Freehold Mall, what a mad house. People are mean, rude and nasty. The push past you without a second glance or an "I'm sorry." When did Christmas shopping become so ugly????? No one is really happy they just are going through the motion......bah humbug!!!! Ok, but my cookies are started, dough in the frig and a batch made. My husband screwed up two, not one two, batches of friggin cookies!! Tasted like chocolate chip and salt cookies. I swear the man has ADHD, can't follow damn directions, how hard is it?

It is December 1st and we have plans for New Years already. Simple, just dinner with friends, and friends that make us crazy at that....we love them though. It seems that my girlfriend wants to be home by 9:30 on NYE, what the hell???? We will have dinner with them and let them go home, we want to go hang out at a local bar, anything but go home, I guess we will play it by ear.
