Otherwise, you might not be able to do other stuff too. Seems that us women become parents to our husband first, then our children. Why did we do this to ourselves? When we because empty nesters, I decided that I was no longer going to work at being perfect to be loved. Realizing that (for example) my DH would not notice things had been dusted. And the fact that he will put his coffee cup on the countertop, directly above the dishwasher instead of putting in right into the dishwasher ... well, I am certain that you know what I mean.

As mothers I think all of this comes from within not from our upbringing.<br /><br />As a mother you inspire me with your "go get 'em attitiude", you always have been 100 miles an hour and its about time you stopped to smell the roses or mandarins as the case may be.<br /><br />Love ya heaps and am proud that your brand of mothering rubbed off on me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16151064836369618082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-641653493549897677.post-46434183163927721152011-07-10T17:12:32.527+09:302011-07-10T17:12:32.527+09:30Oh dear - I was going to comment on yesterday'...Oh dear - I was going to comment on yesterday's blog and plead guilty for teaching you all those bad things but got side tracked with picking mandarins and other "work" stuff,<br /><br />Now today you follow up with more guilt trips!<br /><br />Sorry love - didn't mean for you to pick up on all my vibes when you were growing up. <br /><br />It is totally permissible to stop and smell the roses although I must admit, it's taken me until now to realise that and feel comfortable with it!<br /><br />Pleased to hear GDIL is feeling better.Mumhttp://www.aussie-eggshell-carvers.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-641653493549897677.post-45209552946515279962011-07-10T16:41:53.247+09:302011-07-10T16:41:53.247+09:30No it's not just you Fi, I feel guilty too whe...No it's not just you Fi, I feel guilty too when I find myself having time for myself.
