Hey, It's Okay Tuesday

One of my favorite blogs, Airing My Laundry, does a post every week that was inspired by a section of Glamour magazine. She invites her followers to do their own posts like this. I had fun doing this a month or so ago (and even made a new blogger friend, as a result), so I thought I'd do it again. Since I don't do this weekly, my list will be long.

It's okay...

*To not think Caddyshack was funny other than maybe one or two parts.

*To be excited that my older son is turning 10 in less than a week.

*To not feel ready for the High Holidays AT ALL.

Picture from a few years ago to
make up for the challah I haven't baked yet.

*To be happy for my husband about his new job, but to also wish the commute were way shorter.

*To be annoyed that "school the next day" is not motivating my kids to go to bed earlier.

*To be happy for my daughter starting her last year of Pre-K, but also wistful because it means she's getting older.

*To want to show my kids some movies I liked when I was younger. Like UHF, for starters.



*To be sick and tired of all the news being about the Kardashians or the Duggars.

*To be happy that the county clerk in Kentucky has to go to jail and to enjoy all the memes about her hypocrisy. I especially love the OITNB one with Big Boo.

*To put off household chores in favor of watching Parenthood.

*To prioritize After You (by Jojo Moyes) over other books in my TBR pile.

*To have not had birthday parties for any of my kids this year and celebrated by doing special things as a family instead. The latest was taking everyone to a hotel (with a pool, of course) for my older son's birthday.

*To wish it were autumn already. Bring on 50 degrees and fallen leaves. And, of course...PUMPKIN! Sorry, Scary Mommy!
