I've now officially entered another layer of this parallel universe called motherhood. The new layer is filled with teen girls who are movie and movie star crazy! I know every generation has their version of teen pop culture.

I thought I left this behind in highschool, this feeling of not being enough, but it's doggedly followed me my whole life and here I am, hitting 45, supposedly middle-aged, if I'm lucky to live that long, and I still don't feel like I'm enough. Enough for what, I do not know. I have a great family - husband and kids. I have my health.

O.K. so this weekend is Mothers Day! I wish holidays in general would be more specific! For example whos Mothers Day is it? Is it my day? My Mother's? or my Husbands Mother's Day?

When times are tough and you're unsure who has your back, it's always nice to know who your true friends are, but how can you tell?

Today in my email there was a litmus test for a true friend. I haven't actually verified the accuracy of this experiement, but I'm betting there's some truth to it!
