WIGS ON A MIDDLE AGED MOTHER

The whole blog needed a make-over. I think I need to include pictures of flowers or celebrities too. Something to liven it up. Maybe a naked picture of me to help motivate me to STOP EATING LEO'S GRILLED CHEESE. It was so much easier when he was an infant. I was never tempted to drink my own breast milk. I SWEAR. and now every meal that Leo gets looks like the perfect meal to me. If he'd fight me for his fries a little..that would help. Or do what he does when he sees me steal abandoned toys at playground. 'THAT'S NOT OURS! NO! THAT'S NOT OURS!" and I have to throw down the adorable bucket simply because the Dali Lama thinks it's wrong. If only he'd yell at me for eating all of his chicken nuggets while my salad just withers away on my plate...untouched. So yesterday I think I hit a bottom with it and am going to try and be done. Plus I always have this plan on losing weight while Jeff is gone and surprising him when he gets home in a string bikini and roller blades. (I have neither..don't worry) but it never happens because eating as a single parent is a real perk. But I'm going to really try and eat things like...I can't think of anything right now besides waffles but I'll come up with a diet plan. Or just sprinkle "shit flakes" on everything. My friend Dan swears there is a new powder you can buy to sprinkle on food that makes that food taste like shit so you won't eat it.

The naps are better for those of you who were LOSING THEIR MINDS over what would happen. I don't wake him up anymore...there's really no reason to. If he wants to sleep until 4:30 it's not that big of a deal. If there's some big event I want to go to...like a grilled cheese festival by the ocean than I will but I realized that I don't have to wake up him. He can go to bed later too. He doesn't normally...so even if he sleeps in he's fine. So once again I'm an amazing mother. And that's not just the xanax talking. It can't be because I don't have any.

it's sunday today.  the day of families everywhere.  I think I'm going to take him to the pee collecting place.  I mean the public pool.  I'm going to brave it.  SEE WHAT I'M DOING FOR HIM JEFF!!!!
