I don't think this sounds like a mid-life crisis at all, it sounds like what goes on in my head on a daily basis.

You can do it!!!

Write a book...about basketweaving.

I'd buy it....if you wrote it! =)

And yes, my sweets, you ARE wise, which is why I love you so.

I agree with Denise, when Momma's happy so is the rest of the family. Take care of yourself.

I think you should be a cyber-life coach.

Did you ever see that show Starting Over?

Obviously I did.

Deb you could outdo Rhonda ANYday. Or maybe you could be the female version of Tim Robbins?

Is that his name? I'm too lazy to google it.

See? I need help.

Get out of my head! Okay, not really, I love that we have such symbionic thoughts. It is just soo hard! I wish we could attend a "boot camp" for moms of teenagers, kind of like a parenting rehab? Not a bad idea, huh?

I have something to email you…and my thoughts are with you.
Thanks so much for your encouragement, it means the world to me!

Oh, Deb. I just love you. This is freaking AWESOME! Seriously. There are so many little nuggets of wisdom in this post that I need to stow away for the teenage years. I think it is fabulous that you are going to focus on YOU. I think that's what keeps us vibrant and HAPPY. I took a few years of photography, and my time in the darkroom developing stuff was pure therapy. When my brother was in high school, I got to go with him to a free night for his pottery class and that was also pretty therapeutic. Might sound silly, but I think there's just something about creating something with your hands. I'm so excited to hear about what class you'll choose to take, and I'm also looking forward to see what else you decide to do for yourself. You deserve it so much.

How about blog header designer? Love the new look.

What to do? What to do? Maybe a better question is what not to do?

I decided this weekend I want to be a biochemist or a lab technician. Wanna join?

Nah, me neither. See, two down

Oooh! I love that you are going to be doing stuff for you. A few months ago I posed the same questions to myself and I've been jazzed ever since I actually ANSWERED the question. LOL Nw I'm going to go check out this pet project of which you speak…

I love the idea of doing stuff for you. It will help your whole family. Try something you always wanted to try….go someplace new. Whatever will make YOU happy. Cause when momma's happy…everyone is happy!
