Life can make you feel like you are crazy sometimes!

You are a Mess!

by Blue Hendrix

Oh, you are... are you? Contest Winner 
You are the type that doesn't like a crowd.
Especially the big ones too busy, too loud.
 
You are side tracked easily, from one project to another.
Forget what you are doing with one phone call from your mother.
 
You are messy when you cook, everything is out of place.
Maybe why your husband has that mad look on his face.
 
You are a grandma that wants to please!
So if they want it, they get it, you're happy to appease.
 
You are known at times to be a little scatter brained.
But that's Only when the sun shines, and also when it rains.
 
You are more anxious than you like to admit.
Because you strive for perfection and don't like to quit.
 
You are always behind,always running late.
Just be happy you can remember the time and the date.
 
You are very in touch with your spiritual side.
If you saw a ghost you would never run and hide.
 
You are a collector well, some might say hoarder..
But you know where it's at, it's just in your special order.
 
You are always keeping peace because you are the mama.
But with five grown children there is always some drama.
 
You are just a woman trying to survive and stay sane.
But this world makes sanity a hard thing to maintain!!!
