Fun Friday...

It's Friday!! This used to mean something to me when I worked a public job. I'd get so excited about the end of the work week, but now, everyday seems just like the one before it. There's no difference to me, really. But, Zach has a long weekend...teacher's work day, at school. So, I think he and I will head to Lynchburg this morning to do a little shopping, and maybe have lunch. I should attempt to enjoy this little outing...afterall, the two of us used to be 'tied to the hip'. These days, though it kinda feels like dragging a huge bag of dirty laundry around with you, wherever you go! In other words, the trips together are not that pleasurable. In six short weeks, Zach will be seventeen years old. That should tell you something. He and I don't have the same tastes, in ANYTHING. Well, I take that back...we do listen to the same kinds of music. He enjoys the same rock music (and groups) that I listened to back in the late 70's and 80's. But, that about sums it up, as far as us agreeing on anything. Then, there's that 'thing' where the teen boys don't want to be seen(having fun) with their mothers. And even though I "get this", it doesn't make the situation anymore enjoyable or bearable. I do realize though, that this child 'o mine will be leaving the nest way sooner, than later, so I'll just SUCK IT UP and try to get the most enjoyment that I can, out of these days I spend with him. I'll just make sure before we leave this morning, that I'm wearing my 'big girl panties'! Til next time...blessings!
