hawaii 2008
1. this will be my view in a few months. i can not wait!
2. after clearing it with mike's boss, we booked flight and hotel yesterday.
3. and after spending time with mom tonight, i could use a vacation and a drink!
4. i'm super jealous of those who has a great relationship with their moms.
5. leaving monday night dinner, i felt frustrated, stupid, worthless and hurt- everything i felt growing up.
6. i know this is why i have social awkwardness.
7. my friend jen and two of her kids came over for lunch, couponing and meal planning though not a lot got done. too much talking!
8. her daughter gave alex, kaylee's american girl doll, a haircut.
9. i told kaylee once she got home from school. she cried a few tears then was over it. [its really not that bad but still]
10. took ham's driving at night privileges away for being irresponsible on curfew over the weekend. that's when he told me he's counting down the days till he goes to college. boy am i feeling the L.O.V.E today.
Aw so lucky! I so wish we could afford to go to hawaii too. But it would be boring without more peeps coming with us (not that we're going, ha!). Hm, if it makes you feel any better, I totally do NOT have a close relationship with my mom either. All those years she never made an effort and now, thinking she deserves to be our confidantes.. it's too weird. I love her but it's awkward still. Plus the language barrier. Just look in the mirror and love who you are. Seriously, you're smart & lovely! And you're a terrific mom yourself.
ReplyDeleteAlso, it might help to hash things out with your mom instead of letting it steam inside of you.
Don't feel too badly.. bright side? Hawaii in a few months.. : )
