Well, I don't really know what I'm doing, but my daughters write these blogs all the time and I thought I'd give it a try.
One thing I've learned is that it's a good idea to be careful what you write. I just signed onto my daughter's blog and I hadn't looked at it for quite a while. I guess maybe she was kind of banking on that because she said how much I drive her crazy, etc. etc. Huh. Weird. Did she want me to read that?
No harm done really. I'm not really hurt. Well, maybe a little bit. I guess I know I drive her crazy. She drives me crazy too sometimes. But do you have to put it out there to the world like it's a negative thing? I guess that's what bugged me about it. She's telling people I don't know, that don't know me. What will they think?
If she's bugged why doesnt' she talk to me about it? Maybe we could come to a better understanding of each other and work through our feelings and quit doing the stuff that's bugging each other and know each other better and have a better, stronger relationship.
It's hard when you're used to being the Mom or the Kid and then the kid grows up. How do you re-define the relationship?

Hi Lakechick,
I just wanted you to know that none of us who read Joonzgurl's blog ever judged you for a second!
Most of us are daughters and we all whine and complain about our moms too, we never mean anything by it, moms just fall into the category of people we bitch about when we are stressed or irritated, right up there with boyfriends, girlfriends, siblings... in fact we bitch about pretty much everyone, we're a whiney lot!!
i completely agree with nette! i never judged you once, i always just read it off as 'daughter mom' stuff. me and my mom drive each other nuts but i love her to pieces, as i know does rachel. like rach said, its sort of just an online diary, its how we're feeling at the exact moment. dont fret!!
