Bonding with my daughter before college

I had a great day with my 18 year old daughter today. We went and got our brows waxed...ouch....and I got nails and she got a pedicure. We ate chinese food, got ice cream, shopped for school supplies, etc. She had a great time; I got the privilege of buying it all for her. Funny how it keeps working out that way! Really, we did enjoy our day. It won't be long until she's off to college. She gets pretty annoyed because she is about to go to college, but they still give her a children's menu and charge her for a child's buffet because she looks so young. One day she will be thankful for the youth! I used to get aggravated if someone carded me; now I will give them money! Even a pity ID check would be ok. Last time I asked if they needed to see my ID, they snickered and told me that it wouldn't be necessary. Hey, how much trouble would it have been to humor me on it?

I was not a weenie. The eyebrow thing HURTS.

The empty nest!!! Oh, I do not look forward to that, and yet it will occur in a quick 10 years or less. And a surgery too? I read that at Perri's blog, I think.

I will be praying for you V.

Hello,
Remember me?
your blog -- I've been so lonely.
Come back. I feel like I have empty nest syndrone.

Day after day
I sit alone.
Nobody to write in me.
I'm all on my own.

I thought you were a writer.
I was so excited to be your blog.
But now you just sit there.
Like a bump on a log.

That nice girl who helped you
Set up the blog for you,
I bet she comes to read me,
But alas, what am I to do?

I say the same old thing.
It never changes much at all.
And I hear tell you like to talk.
So let's get on the ball.

So take a minute and take a seat.
And let your musings flow.
Or esle I'll have to type things myself,
About some stuff I know.

You don't want that, I'm sure you'll agree,
But as I sit on your desktop,
You'd be surprised what I see.
So spill your guts or I'll spill mine.
It's time to get with it - get on-line!

Dear Blog Owner:

If blogging is not done soon, I will have no option but to turn you into the BPS. Blog Protection Services for neglect.

Don't let it come to that.
