Well, I've decided to get take a slight detour with this new blog, and keep it just for me. There's more to life than just kids right? I can't be sure, but I plan to take a good hard look anyway. Since they're all I've concentrated on for the last three years and they continue to demand 110% of me at every given minute, it's difficult to break free. But now that they're older, and I'm a little wiser, I've started paying more attention to me, and I realize that there is probably some semblance of normal brain function I can acquire.... obviously with a lot of hard work, effort and maybe a little selfishness.
Does that sound harsh? I really don't care anymore... one day these kids will thank me for having a cool mom who doesn't cringe at their taste in music because she kept up with the ever changing trends. Or they could cringe with embarrassment that I know way too much about their generation's likes and dislikes and hate me for it. But I honestly don't care, as long as I can hold halfway decent conversations with my friends at the numerous cocktail parties I'm sure I'll be invited to when my kids are too busy dating people my husband and I will detest. I'm optimistic can you tell? That life will be so well laid out. One can only hope ;) So I thought I'd blog about things I like, dislike, and attempt to find that old self of mine who got lost somewhere in toddler tantrums, or possibly drowned in formula years ago. It's hard to tell what exactly happened to me, but I'm determined to find out and rediscover a person who I quite liked if I do say so myself.
So join me on my journey of self discovery. I can't promise tons of interesting stuff, nor can I promise that you won't want to close your browser window because I bore you, because initially I may just be posting about how wonderful my neighbour is........ now that I know I have people living next door.
