I miss the real mommy...

Can I just say that I hate not having my "real mommy" glasses? I have worn my old pair, super glued my "real" pair, worn my real pair in a semi-nerd/semi-crooked fashion, and re-broken the real pair twice. Last night was the second time and I accomplished the destruction in a fit of laughter. I was reading a friend of a friend of a friend's blog and I so totally identified with her wish for escape from the stresses of life*, that I laughed and cried so hard that I plunked my head down on my arms for relief and in so doing broke the dang glasses again. Last night it just added to the humor of the moment. Now as I sit here typing it really doesn't seem that funny. I want my "REAL MOMMY" glasses back!
*By the way, the line that really got me was when she told her husband that she didn't know what she was making for dinner, but that what she really wanted was a coma. I don't know if you've ever felt that way...but I could totally relate!!! (I'm not truly wishing for tragedy here, but as Kaylee would say, "It's just an expression.")

a "REAL" Mommy

Sadly, the other night I broke my glasses. Yep, snapped them right in half. I thought I had fixed them, but when I was cleaning them this morning they broke again. So I put on an old pair, which are a replacement from some that broke a few years ago, (I am NOT rough on my glasses, just unlucky!), and came out to the kitchen. It was the second time this week that Kaylee has seen me in these glasses and she was truly dismayed. She asked me if I could please get some new glasses when I get some more money. She said these ones don't look too well, (I don't disagree), and that she wanted me to look like a REAL mommy, not a pretend mommy. Apparently REAL mommies wear dark brown frames on their glasses. Hope that's not too disappointing for the rest of you! :-)
