Hi guys,

Sorry, I'm feeling a bit blue today, and needed some friendly words. I'm very close with my mom, and I have been working two jobs so I can get out of debt quicker. So, this week is bastille days in Milwaukee, and we usually go together, just me and her, some quality bonding time. But, I have to work at my 2nd job that night, so I can't go. I don't know why I'm so emotional over it, just probably tired. Just needed some friendly words today.


Debt, I am sure your mom knows why you are working 2 jobs. I think she will understand that you cannot go because of your work. But maybe you can have a dinner date sometime soon to make up for the time you would have spent together that night. But also when your debt free make those plans with her for the trip, I think she would enjoy that much more than just one night.

Heck if I wasn't so scared of Milwakee (I get soooo lost driving through there lol) I would drive down and take your mom for you.

It will be ok and she will understand, thats what mom's do when their kids grow up and try and make it on their own.

I know how you feel debt, my mom was my best friend and when I moved (only 35 miles away) it was sooo hard for me I used to see her everyday. I missed her so much. But now I am 37 and I miss her even more because she passed away 5 1/2 years ago.

I know you need the money (otherwise you wouldn't be working 2 jobs) but have you thought of taking the day off to take her? It's just another option. But you know, you are feeling blue because of this, just give her a call and tell her that you miss her. That will make her feel good and she will say the things that moms always do to make their kids feel better.

Well, I mean, she works, too. She only works about 10 minutes from my apt, but she lives about 30 miles from me. And, she still takes care of my brother, who lives with her. She's just a busy lady, and it's hard to find a time that usually works for both of us. So, that's probably more of why I'm upset, because she has time, and I don't. I do have the day off on Saturday, and asked her if we could get together then, and told her I missed her. So, we'll see.

I'm 27, and I still miss my mom! So I can understand when you are feeling tired and emotional, it makes things worse. But hey, you have it better than I do--it's really hard for me to see my mom as often as I'd like because I live in WI now and she lives in IN. So when we do together it's really special. We still call each other several times a week, and I make sure to call her during the weekends, or she gets sad. Your mom understands that it's not going to be easy for you at this time in life getting out of debt, but she is there for you and she's rooting for ya--I know my mom is there for me emotionally when I need it. :)

I am so sorry you can't go to Milwaukee like you wanted to. I hope you get to go see your mom Saturday. I think that all of us need some momming every now and then. My mom lives about 1600 miles away from me and I haven't seen her in 5 years. She is coming to visit for a couple days next month. I miss her every single day and sometimes I get really sad because I miss her so much. Look forward to Saturday, and try not to be too sad. {{hugs}}
