Why, Oh Why…
-Did my son (4 years-old) suggest that I lay on the couch with my shirt up exposing my swollen belly, while neighbors and all interested passersby come to the house to admire my belly??? He thought they would find it as interesting as he does.
-Did I purchase this granite finish paint for my room, had hubby paint half of the room, only to stop him because the color looked nothing like the swatch? AND, the granite was all clumpy and not evenly distributed? AND we had to buy a power sander to sand the wall (which we haven’t done), before we can prime it and repaint an entire different color? AND why has this “pet” project set me back $200????
-Did my friend, this friend, find a townhouse to rent that doesn’t check credit but doubles the security deposit for $1075/mo, she hasn’t moved in yet, came up with the security deposit but already doesn’t know how she will pay 1st months rent??? Did I mention she has NO JOB, receives maybe $400/mo social services, ex-hubby is laid off, she home schools her 4 kids, AND because ex-hubby messed up her credit the electric company is charging her $900 deposit before they will turn on her power???? BUT…she insists having her own is better than living w/mom?
-Did I tell the above friend that I would give her some money next week?
-Am I feeling under pressure to finish some random meme b/c I was tagged? I really don’t feel like doing it.
-Do I have gestational diabetes and am sooo trying to get this under control so I can still birth at a birthing center and not the hospital AND not be sad but just focus on delivering a healthy baby?
-Do I walk more like a penguin at work so people can leave me alone?
-Did my nephew (7 years-old) write his “my role model” essay on his grandfather and say he was a entrepreneur because he comes to VA and buys cigarettes, goes back to NYC and then goes outside saying “Newp.orts, getcha Ne.wports here”?
-Did he read this out loud to a room full of parents, kids and teachers and my sister - who said she wanted to crawl under the table?
LOL @ the last two. Out of the mouth of babes. So are all of the neighbors and passerby s’posed to eat chips and dip during the belly viewing? LOL.

Forgot: Not that I think everything Oprah says and does is on point but on her debt diet series she mentioned parents teach their kids financial habits good or bad. So if your friend continues to live her life this way she will pass it on to one, if not all of her children. Parents need to show their kids fiscal responsibilty by being fiscally responsible themselves.
Ok getting off soap box.
