Mum 101

The single mum is coming and the train whistle is a blowing. The train does not make a sleepy sound like the words in a song I use to sing as a child with my family. I have learnt parts to do with cars that I would rather not, and now medical insurance what a nightmare. WOW who came up with how that one works infact does anyone know how it works. Then there is the mortgage company it is like dealing with the Government themselves. Hey add the maths problems of 8th grade and finding a job. How do you make Mum sound cool in the industry of marketing yourself to get a career that might actually pay well. It's degree's, word, excel, publisher, access and accounting terminology. I mean give me a band aid, some tissues and a sketch book and hey I am up there with Microsoft Word. Now all of a sudden I am rethinking myself. Hey I am in my forties now better look it. Mum 101 have to look like I know what I am doing. The truth is Mum 101 is a thing I am learning as I go. I know more about cars than I did last year. I know how to use a cashier register and smile even when I want to say pack your groceries yourself thank you. So as I enter Mum 101 I would like to say to all Mum's give yourself a break your doing a great job you may not have a degree you may not know what access is but you sure know how to hug your child better than any living soul. You are amazing.
So find the hair brush and lipstick and smile you are doing a great job Mum.
Please have a cup of tea with me today.
