Which I already feel like some days. Thank you menopause. Today is not a good day. Today I am trying to keep the crazies tucked in and the weeping at bay. Not an easy task. I really have no reason to weep which only scores another point for the crazies. Plus it's Mother's Day Weekend for which I am feeling inexplicably morose. Again there is absolutely no reason for that. My two children are incredible adults who love me and are attentive. My mother and mother in law are lovely women for whom I appreciate and love. (score another for the crazies.)
I think abut Mom's. After my number one son went on his mission I went into a depression of sorts thinking I was done. I had checked everything off the mommy list, So what now? I found there are so many people out there who need a mother figure. I have many friends now, mostly younger, who needed the stability (ha!) of an older woman to just listen and to encourage. I like talking to them and hearing their hopes and aspirations. Oddly enough , several of them call me Mom. I consider it an honor and a blessing. And possibly a calling from God.
It's a tough world now. So many children have raised themselves, never having the stability of a parent to guide them in decision making. Which might actually explain why young people are so hip on Bernie sanders. He will decide everything! he will make everything easy! Socialism is great! Which still makes me feel like this:

So amongst politics, and hormones - today the crazies are winning.
But look out tomorrow!
