Well this weekend was mad, mad I tell you! Sadie had a spend the night party and what in the hell possessed me to have 6, count em, SIX screaming girls all under age 5 in my home is beyond me! But I bet I never do it again. Gawd, I am exhausted. I think for the most party they had fun, at least I hope so. Totally bombed on my diet lately but

I think there are a lot of ways to have fun without behaving in ways that can harm you. I got married when I was 18 and had my daughter when I was 21. I got divorced and jumped right into another long-term relationship, so I never really had the chance to go out and be wild and party. But you know what? That's OK. I'm single now but I don't feel like I have to relive my lost youth of getting drunk all the time and doing drugs and waking up with people I don't know. All that kind of behavior does is hurts you and drags your spirit down. Even if I didn't do those things in front of my daughter, my behavior would still affect her. How much fun is a mom who's hung over all the time? How attentive can a mom be when she's all strung out and high? And how happy is a mom who's sleeping around with anybody who will have sex with her? I prefer to relive my youth by going to concerts and bungee jumping and getting my daughter interested in the same music I like. That way we can head bang in the car together. :oP Sometimes I go out and get drunk but I ALWAYS have a designated driver. And sometimes I'll have a drink when my daughter's around, but I never get drunk in front of her. I want to be her role model, not someone she's ashamed of.
