"I am not going to win the Super Mom of the year award this year!"
It takes a lot to send me into a "Mommy Tsunami" episode. Actually, I haven't used that expression in a long time since the actual Tsunami last year (it kind of lost the humor). But this morning, you can feel my heart beating out of my chest, my blood pressure was close to boiling....I kept taking deep breaths, deeper, deeper....and then BAAAAABOOOOOMMM!!My hormonally imbalanced teenager sent me into a meltdown! Did you
hear some bizarre explosion at 8:27AM this morning? That was me! And when I lose it....watch out! I am not a pretty sight. I used to be able to just get this look and the family would backdown. I think I have lost that magic look. Now my teenager has the audacity to stand up to me. He calls it his right to "Freedom Of Speech". I'll give him freedom of speech. I told him that while America is the land of the free and that it is a democracy...it doesn't hold true for this house! "Baby, this household is a dictatorship and I am the dictator! So you are going to school."
Okay, I'm crawling back into bed. Maybe I should re-think finding a man with a PhD..he would be useful after all. He could prescribe me some good drugs to get me through mornings like this!

Mick Jagger & the Stones have a good prescription for you "Mother's Little Helper."
...You have to put your foot down sometime.
Hmmm .. my URL didn't pick up on last ,essage - maybe i need to borrow some of Mother's little helper.
Alas, you'll need an MD, not a Ph.D. Otherwise, I'd be glad to help (in 5 or 6 years, at any rate).
aah! yes, Mother's Little Helpers! How I loved and forgot about that song. Just thinking about it puts a smile on my face
Bummer..
I heard the explosion..
I knew it was you..
But I thought there was another reason...
