I am coming to the conclusion that my job is being phased out. Yes, I know the economy has not been great the last few years, but I was under the mistaken impression that my job was recession proof. What job is this? you may wonder. Being a mom.

This year Ihave onlythe last two of my offspring with me, or should I say they have me with them. In years gone by, they needed me to accompany them to the beach, get them to swimming, sailing or an occasional movie.
