It is a soap opera, but I wish it was a sitcom. You know like the Cosby Show?
I love the Cosby Show. It takes me back to a simpler time. Claire was the quintessential mother who rarely had her feathers ruffled where her children were concerned. Where can I get some of that?
I think I am Claire's polar opposite. My feathers are all over the room at times. I have a tendency to exude calm, cool, collection. That is my facade.
I loved the elaborate lessons the Cosby children were taught. Remember the one with Theo living on his own? Money lesson learned in one half hour. Or the one where Theo was on trial for telling half truths and other deceptions? Yet another courtroom drama wrapped up in, you guessed it, one half hour.
Where am I going with all of this? I think it can be wrapped up neatly in the Serenity Prayer. "Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."
In the immortal words of Frank Costanza, "Serenity Now, Serenity Now!"

I love the new background! And for the record, my family is much closer to the constanza's then the Cosby's. "Festivus is not over until you beat your father george!"
Ahhhh, I am always trying to calm myself with the "Serenity Now!", and it actually works about 25% of the time.
Whatever you are going through, you can handle it my friend, because you're good enough, you're smart enough, and doggonit, people like you!
