You might say we look alike...we get that sometimes (there really should be a sarcasm font.)
But to explain her best, I should really zoom out of this picture.
My momma is everybody's momma.
She's one of those people that (excuse me) has her shit together. She's rational, practical, logical and one of the great problem solvers of our time...serving up cut and dry answers since 195....er... since the beginning of her days.
Its often brought to my attention what a wonderful momma I have but today in particular I'd like to share.
A few excerpts from our morning email titled: Mess'n with CoCo. (CoCo is me)
Good date gone bad advice: Odds shouldn't be in his favor unless he has been sitting by his dying relative's side at the hospital night & day since your date. He missed an opportunity of a lifetime.
Dating advice in general: enjoy dating for the sake of socializing and meeting new people. (What are you waiting for?) Each date does not have to be the man of your dreams or your first husband. (ha!) Connections lead to more connections. If a date is a disaster then just ask to go home. Moo may need you. The more experience you have with dating, the better your decisions will be.
Making more friends advice: Just find some people to do fun things with and don't shut them down. Enjoy what they have to offer and keep moving forward.
Work advice: Push the envelope and take some chances and make some changes. Anything you work on will get results. That's just the way you are. I believe that good things come to good people. Use your skills, talents and resources. Don't be shy. Don't be hesitant.
Cant find my "big girl pants" advice: Clue: they are pink and you are going to sew on some black lace. Today.
Perspective advice: I love you and this is not a huge disastrous deal. Disasters look a whole lot worse than this. I can't wait to come to Austin. I get to see you, the apartment, get my hair "did" , and get out of MP for a few days. Hell yesss!!!!
Just plain good advice: Don't let your talent go untapped.
See how lucky I am? Swear that woman's the white Oprah...and i LOVE me some Oprah.
