Mama never told me....

I've been thinking a Lot lately about the things our Mom's Never Tell US as girls....to be fair I need to post a WARNING!

WARNING: For girl's eyes only...Adult Content! (Boys if you read, you might not quite enjoy the things being shared...and it might actually shatter your visions of "females" some :D)

That said...here it comes...

My Mom NEVER told me that.....

* You go to bed one night with one face and wake up the next morning with instant lines and creavices...a.k.a wrinkles :D

* It's pointless to shave your legs in the Winter...you jump out of a warm shower with smooth as can be legs, and before you get dressed in the coolness of the room you have pricklies again!

* Your hair color continues to follow it's own path too...darker, & darker & darker it likes to grow.

* Daylight savings time will be a "big" deal the older you get...that your internal clocks will NOT appreciate it.

* Always cook enough food for left-overs...saves yourself an extra night or two of cooking during a week :D

* Out of the blue you will find long...and I do mean LONG hairs growing out of your neck or under your chin...how they can be there and you not notice them until they are at least 3 inches long is quite the mystery.

* I remember when I was 5 wishing I could have 2 body parts to lift up and wash under...now, the thought totally makes me want to SCREAM!

* She never said body parts continue a journey southward yearly..

* Chocolate chip cookies for breakfast after the age of 20 = a LOT of praying when it's time to button your pants.

* After your 20's magically two pounds a year show up on your body

* Guys don't care as much about a clean toliet as girls do :D And, that clean floors absolutely mean NOTHING...NADA, maybe they only serve as a bright green signal..saying "Go" ..."GO"..go ahead walk on me...

* Grocery shopping is truly an art..the best at it come home with a cartload of groceries with only $10 spent..and a candy bar thrown in!

* There would be days you can't wait to go by fast, and days you wish would last forever...

* No matter how old you get..You always still need your MOM!!!

Mmmm....as I continue to grow older there seems to be more and more things I discover that my Mama never told me...but, I am so glad for the things she did!!!

So...Happy Sunday! What a beautiful morning with the sun peeking through and the earth crisp to the touch....and the promise of a wonderful Lord's day ahead!!! Sweet blessings!

Hmmm...Maybe she did tell you all those things... As you get older you appreciate what Mamma said more. You also appreciate each moment with your partner more...

Am I hearing you should shave in an ice cold shower?

;-}

Unfortunately I agree with all you listed. The bad news is there is more but you have to wait and experience them for yourself!
