It Figures….

Yesterday  with all the chaos and spilt milk I found myself rubbing my chin quite a few times trying to figure out just how to solve the latest problem.  As evening grew closer I noticed a tender spot on my chin. ”Huh”

This morning I woke up to see the newest wonder of the world looking back at me in the mirror….. I have a zit!  Yep one of those volcano types.  It only figures that I am actually leaving the house today and will be meeting people for the first time. 

“Pardon me for looking sideways as we talk. I just don’t want this to explode all over you”

Oh yeah, no make up in the world is going to cover this baby.

I made it through my teens pretty much acne free.  Now that I hit my 30’s I can count on having at least one monster every  month.

After lunch I took JJ to her Jr. Lego League Day Camp.  I know as we were sitting there in the van she was looking at me it thinking to herself….

“that looks painful, will I have to get those when I am as old as mom?” 

Oh I could see the look of fear in her eyes trust me.  She was just being polite and not saying anything.

We pulled up to the building and I thought that maybe she would be okay to walk in on her own.  Okay she is 8, I know that and therefore did get my teenage acting self out of the van and escorted her inside.  I was quick though, in and out!

She was probably thankful that she didn’t have to introduce me and my growth to everyone. 

“Hi this is my mom and her pet Helga”

Yes, Helga, that is what we should call it.  Well maybe not, I don’t want to offend any beautiful Helga’s out there in blog world.  Crud I don’t want it to be around long enough to have a name.

Okay I will pretend to be in my 30’s now and act less like I am 15.  I tell you though I hope someday soon I can say

“I don’t really remember the last time I had a zit”

Please tell me it will be someday soon.
