-When a long time parent of over a year all of a sudden quits beinging their chid to your daycare...even after you gave them 14 free weeks because they were laid off....take another breath when they don't ever make an attempt to pay you or speak to you...then take another breath before telling your daughter why her best friend of all time no longer comes to see her.

- When you need a good release and he's the only one who gets one!!!

- When you waxed your legs with no pain or problem at all...you made it through a natural chidbirth and then decide to wax your private areas...how bad can it hurt..AHHHHHHHH ok take a big scream for this!!!

- When you feel as though there's two people in the house and yet...your the only one listening to the fighting and screaming and fighting between children.

-When you put on make-up for the first time in a few weeks during the day for no reason at all...and another parent says.."wow, I didn't know...umm wow, you wear make-up." as though they are dumb founded that you can wear it or something.

- When for the ump tenth time someone questions whether or not your children are yours because of how young you look.

-When the only adult peple you tak to in a day are those you chat with on-line and you wonder...is this healthy.

- When you just cleaned a room and before you make it to the next....it's trashed with toys and things the baby will put into their mouth.
