    Perpetuating Stereotypes

    Just wanna clear something up...

    I don't want to perpetuate any stereotypes. Yes, my mother and I are not getting along right now and my mother happens to be Jewish. And I know there are a lot of moms out there, Jewish and not, giving daughters all over the world hard times. LOL. But I don't want anyone to doubt for a minute that I love my mom, that I know she loves me and actually, despite whatever issues I have with her methods, I know she thinks she is doing the right thing by staying on me about my problems.

    There have been olenty of times when my mother has been there for me like a trooper.

    And so I just wanted to say that cause there's been a lot of hating on moms and I TOTALLY understand that, of course, but I don't want anyone to think I was trying to create and perpetuate the "Jewish Mother" stereotype cause if you know me, you know it's not really my style to be that way.

    Is this making sense?

    Yes, some moms suck, but more often than not, I like to believe and hope they don't.

    For dinner tonight, by the way, I had a sensible salad and drank a lot of water. That's not really relevant but when I can plan and execute a healthy meal, I feel rather proud of myself so I wanted to brag. LOL.
