Can I Puke a Little?
I normally watch The Today Show when my son is in preschool and my daughter is napping. It's my guilty pleasure with a couple of cups of joe in the mornings. Today, though, I ended up finding myself switching over to The View while The Today Show was preempted so that that channel 8 could cover the happenings over at Wimbledon. Great. The last thing this bitter old wench wants to watch is a bunch of lithe, beautiful young athletes hitting balls at each other while becoming devastatingly wealthy...so I changed the channel. Not such a great idea...I should have stuck to the pretties on the court.
One of the topics the ladies of The View covered today was how important it is to take care of yourself as a mother with young kids in order to be a better mother. DUH! And then a couple of the ladies went on to whine about how they feel guilty leaving their kids behind to get a massage or pedi or how they don't have enough time to take care of themselves because they are watching their kids. PUHLEASE! I know for a fact that these women employ top of the line nannies and do not feel an inch of guilt when they go do lunch or spa days. I want to hear REAL moms talk about how they don't have time to eat because they are taking care of their kids and can't sit down to pee let alone have a pedicure. Yeah, real moms who deserve to complain about how hard it is to be a mom because we have to do it all on our own without the bennie of a nanny on call to help out whenever the need should arise.
I have friends in the biz who have never so much as lost an hour of sleep at night or in the morning because their night nannies take care of odd hour waking babies. Moms who have had more facials than diaper changing sessions with their babes. And yes, I can admit that at times I get jealous. I would LOVE to have time to pamper myself, breathe, take a nap, feel like a woman.....who wouldn't? But I don't have this luxury and neither do most moms.....so watching celeb moms complain about how hard they have it makes me puke just a little bit in my mouth. A slight regurge. *Sigh* Maybe I should stop watching TV altogether....
