I was working on my column last night when Golden Boy plopped down on the coach with a loud sigh.
“I’m sad Sassy’s leaving for college soon. I actually LIKE her now.”
I looked at him, “That’s because we’ve been gone for five days. Don’t you worry, by the time she leaves next week you’ll hate her more than ever.”
“You’re probly right. Thanks, Mom.”
“Don’t mention it. Now get downstairs and start pissing her off.”
A mother's job is never done...

LMBO - that's hilarious! HA! I've missed getting to chat with you - how was your trip to NY? Big hugs! :o)
The house is going to be pretty quiet and lonely when both the girls are away at college....for all of 5 minutes. Then you will bask in the glory that is "alone" time.
How funny! Yeah, I'm sure he'll be ready for her to go next week.
Somehow, let him think that when she goes, he gets her room. Let him start planning and plotting now.
That should provide for fireworks.
HA... yep, that's what siblings are for. To piss each other off.

Sage advice! Nothing like getting pissed off with somebody to miss them just a little less. What a great mom you are!
-->You look great and skinny in the BlogHer pictures. Love the advice to GB too.
Bwahahaha.
Good luck today!
Hmph, why are you encouraging him?! Moms are so annoying...
Anyways, super funny! Siblings, you only like 'em when they're away. FAR away...
Omg I love it! What is he going to do without them there....oh! god are you scared!
Your dedication is inspiring. Thank you!

I love to see when anxiety can be dealt with in such a quick and loving way.
Thanks for the great belly laugh!
So funny. And so true!
I think everyone in the house should start openly talking about what each one wants to do with her room.
ya gotta love the goings on between a brother and sister...lol

You are such a funny lady! Hmmm, I just realized your girls are "Sassy" and "Bitchy" while the boy is "Golden Boy"! Interesting, very interesting! Of course, he isn't a teen-ager yet either! :)
Oh siblings! That gave me a laugh.
you're an inspiration.
Having our oldest away at school definitely changes the tenor of the household. The other two can hate on each other louder and in more despicable ways.
I always say a brother is a best friend and enemy for life... though I'm still having to do butt checks after poops so I can't even imagine one leaving for college!
LOVE this - and so darn true! You've done your job well...lol
School started today.. Thank you Jesus...LOL
Such a good and wise mother.. I wish I had known you when mine were young and pliable.
<3 Candice
LOL! So true...
Yeah. . . I kind of like mine five minutes before they leave too!
Oh you are way too funny. Love it.
ah! little brothers!
Mine is a little shit but i still love the little twerp.. technically hes taller than me and i would never call him a twerp to his face... maybe an asshole... but i love him.
They grow up so fast!
We're counting down the days until my youngest leaves for school again.
你想要離婚，卻不顧多年夫妻的情份。
我知道，是因為你有了外遇。
你寧願把錢滿足她所有慾望，卻不願意多給贍養費！
難道真的要抓姦你才會付出你所應該付出的？
其實我真的不願意去抓姦的，我不願意看到她占據屬於我的位置，
然而如果不抓姦，我就無法拿到我應得的權益！
或許是想要報復吧，或許真的心灰了，
或許我想要看看被抓姦的你們驚慌失措的面孔，
我鼓起了勇氣，打了徵信社的電話：我要抓姦！
兒子交了個女友，我和老伴都不是很喜歡；
豐富社會歷練的我們一眼就看出這女生不如表現的單純，
但是兒子卻總是認為我們想太多。
朋友提議不如做婚前徵信調查看看，
希望兒子不要被騙，於是我們決定私下做婚前徵信；
婚前徵信的結果才發現原來女方不僅交友複雜、晚上更做傳播兼差！
兒子看了婚前徵信的報告之後，才知道原來女友的乖巧全都是假象；
兒子說幸好有我們有做婚前徵信，不然等結婚之後才發現，一定又是一段不幸福的婚姻！
*sniff* Such a thoughtful young man...:)
You do it so well.
LOVE how he knew what you were talking about...you're an awesome mom...
Great post. You have a great sense of humor combined with great wisdom. Loved it as I did your account of your trip to New York.
I'd say that's sound advice.
