Oh my word, she's back! LOL.

I have been a single mom since my DDs were 1 and 2 and have always had to work outside of the home. I had a goal that by the time they were teens I wanted to be home more as I felt that as teens they would need guidance in a different way. (I had heard far too many stories of what others teens were doing in their homes while they were at work.) Well, it didn't look like that was going to happen, even though I took a job with more flexibility. However, MS has given me the opportunity to be home with them. Maybe not the way I planned, but I am here for them.

MS is teaching me to slow down. No more going 90 miles an hour - I only go 80. LOL. Not really, I'm slower than that.

MS has taught me who my real friends are; who have stuck with me during my rough times and understand what I go through.

MS has brought many new friends in to my life that have become so important to me and I enjoy them tremendously. That includes all of you.

MS is teaching me to laugh at some of the crazy things going on with my body. Don't get me wrong, I don't laugh all the time just some times this stuff is so silly and bizarre I can't help but laugh.

MS has taught DDs that Mom is human! Supermom went out the window a couple of years ago and Humanmom stepped in and is here to stay. (I don't want to go back to being Supermom.)
