Super long & I go off on a tangent so feel free to not read. No offense taken. Hugs 🫂 

You’re welcome. 😇 THANK YOU 🙏 as you just helped me tremendously. I must set a schedule & use it. It’s on my list as I just started working again the last two weeks. HUGE THANKS 🙏 RESPECT 🫡 Respect ✊ 

The best compliment I ever received was from my sister. My kiddos were all teens then. She said something similar to: Your kids are so cool. They all are different & follow their own beliefs. Unique & different people but definitely their own people. 

Me literally cried 😭😭😭. My kiddos to my sister and family: “She’s not upset, she just feels emotionally so sometimes she cry’s.” 

And WOW 🤩 JUST REMEMBERED THAT. Thanks 🙏 

Either way: their father and I coparented them ( with help from **overall** well
Chosen partners ) & my kiddos didn’t have the simplest life so they get all my respect (but not guilt) that their father & I divorced. 

They grew up in different houses but NOW I see they all turned out to be fierce adults who are genuinely loving & empathetic. My goal was for them to be happy but luckily the Universe gave them more. Grateful 🥹 

My kiddos learn from the world. 🌏 They learned from watching me &
Others that the world doesn’t revolve around them. Thank goodness. They grew up “wealthy” but aren’t spoiled beef jerky. 

#parenting #asknostr #Organization  

At one time I lived out of calendar. Wasn’t diagnosed as ADD until I was 30. My parents said they knew but
Left
Me untreated as I was an A student. Me: I could have went to an IVY … Branches again 

Super early adopter of hand-held PDA. It was actually a #Christmas gift 🎁 & my favorite of that year 🤣🤣🤣. 

Long ago while at a mother’s support group (MOPS) some of the other mothers asked how I was so organized. At that time I had three littles all under 4 & was a college student (left active duty & was national guard but not full time: just weekends then) 

Me: I’m not organized. 

They kindly explained I always show up early or on time & none of my kids ever have dirty clothes. 

Me: ( looks around confused 😕) Witness all the other children playing 🤣. 

Laughing 🤣 “OHHH. I get it now. Yeah, I live out of my calendar. If it’s not on the calendar it doesn’t happen” 

One: “But what about being spontaneous?”

Me: The weekend is open for four hours on Saturday for just that. 

“You plan your spontaneity”

Me: I plan my sex life too. 

Blank stares.
