What Do You Have Mixed Feelings About Today?

When I was really young my mom told me to let her know if I wanted to get married because she was going to give me a ladder and a thousand bucks.

(I was BY FAR the cheapest wedding and reception of us kids...even though they were the boy part the expenses were nuts for both families. I had a small church in the country and the reception at mom and dad's. Got the food and liquor from teh country club where we both worked. Anyway, I digress.)

The second best mom wisdom came my senior year of college. Mom asked me what I planned to do after graduation. I said "Well mom, a lot of kids are opting to stay with their parents for a while." Mom grinned and said "A lot of parents aren't giving that option."

Funny stuff.

I knew I could go home if I really needed to. But I always figured out something.
