You Know I Kid Around A LOT.....

You know I kid around a lot....but there are some things I think should be taken seriously as a Mother Unit!
  1. ALWAYS have libations handy for those days when you have just about had it and if you don't have libations always ensure your neighbours have a fully stocked liquor cabinet!
  2. ALWAYS insist on having a room that has a lock on the INSIDE for those days when you need that Mom timeout!
  3. When the going gets rough - find something to whack, burn or destroy. Go to your local Monster Truck Dealership and see if they'll take you for a test drive and run over a few things...!
  4. Change your name and don't tell the children - can't take the credit for this - my BFF found this to be highly effective when she changed her name from Mom to Sukkey.
  5. And when push comes to shove, invite yourself to the house with ample food, a swimming pool and libations - works GREAT for another friend of mine and she's honest about it.
  6. Write yourself a prescription for your Alone Time - give it to your family members and record their faces as you do for a source of amusement in those trying times
p.s. I am giggling and snorting while I write this and thanks to @thedeMentedmom for the inspiration
