Life as I know it Monday

As a mother I change my work schedule to mirror my kids school/sports as much as possible. Spending time with them mean a lot to be and them. Now mind you a just started my new schedule last week and so far it has work. Except for today. My oldest had high school round up at 8:30am when I'm already at work. This is the child that has no desire to drive, which could have helped today. This son which turns 17 next month but knows the drill since we've been doing this every year for the last three years. He knows what needs to be done and this time it was simple since he already took his senior pictures. So technically he was only getting his class schedule after they verified where we lived in the same house for the last 10 years. ANNOYING!!. I did my mother duties and filled out the five pages they REQUIRE. (like the free lunch program application.. I make to much money I already know this and so do they since I've filled them out every year, and every year you deny our household. Since the government gives the school money for each application submitted. NOW its a requirement. REALLY!)  My poor son goes verifies everything with no problem I mean why would there be. He looks at his class considering he only has half the day full of required classes the rest of electives. I tried to get him to get out early and get a job but he wants to enjoy his last year. Go enjoy this last year of being a child, before bill are due, work is required and  fun is getting to watch your favorite TV show without falling asleep during it. Only half of his class are there they rest are missing. While all this is happening I'm at work stuck, this is not a good feeling for mama-bear. I have to commend him, he got his class fix, small stack of books and signs up for his clubs.

Football hell week has commenced for my middle child. He of course will not walk the 2 short miles to the field and decides to wait until the last minute to call my WONDERFUL mother to give him a ride. She of course is with a client and now he is texting me. What exactly am I to do out of town at work. Some how my wonder woman mother got him to practice, picked him up and fed him. This child has his sophomore round up tomorrow again during the time I'm at work. Unlike my oldest this one wants me there and it hurts a little I can't be there, even though I know the second best thing will be there my mother.


Question....
Am I the only that talks to their mother at least three times a day? I can't be the only person that  likes to chit chat with their parents. This three times a day is with both of us working full time, my three kids and her taking care of my niece. That's normal right??? hahaha well it is for me but when I tell people I get the your not normal look. Now let me tell you a little bit about the boyfriend d. He never talks to his parents and when I ask if he has he give me a annoyed look. So it has me questioning is my relationship with my parents that different from everyone else? I love spending time with my mom she is a riot and my dad when he gets time away from work. Even my friends jump at the chance to hangout with my mom and even call/text/facebook her.

I will hold on to my not normal proudly.
