Lifes Like That

Although my oldest son is now 18 and lives out on his own, he still needs his mother. All his teenage life he has had a serious problem with acne. Nothing he ever tries seems to work for him. So he e-mailed me the other day to ask if I know of the best acne treatment that is available on the market. Since I’ve never experienced this type of problem before I wasn’t really sure what to tell him. So I told him that he should talk to the pharmacist and see what they have to suggest. It was a great feeling knowing that although he is a “young man”, there are still times that he needs his mommy. Unfortunately this time I wasn’t much help. Maybe next time I will be.

Once the kids get off the school bus tonight, they will be home for three days.  Tomorrow will be a holiday from school for them as it is parent teacher day at their school.  Because they both did so well this past term, I have no plans on attending these meetings. 

We have another busy weekend planned, like always.  Tomorrow my daughter and I need to go around the neighborhood to get pledges for his fiddle-a-thon.  On Saturday we are going to look at a piece of land that we may be purchasing (we are looking at moving our mobile home instead of selling it) and then on Sunday we will be headed to my father in law’s for a barbecue.  So although it’s a long weekend for the kids for lots of fun and relaxation, that is not the case for my husband and me.
