		<description>I work from home on Fridays.  Between doing real work and hanging out with my daughter, I gave up trying to get out of my pj&#039;s today and into real clothes. But hey, I&#039;m still working and being a mom. I&#039;m just not a fashionista.</description>

		<description>Wow, I have given up so much, I can&#039;t remember.  My children are almost all grown. (all girls)  My oldest daughter is 25, 18 and 11.  I am nothing of what I was or hoped to be.  But I decided this year it was time to get back to me. And if there is anyone out there who&#039;s knows what that is - I NEED ALL THE HELP I CAN GET.</description>

		<description>Wow, that&#039;s a lot to give up. My husband put the kibosh on private school. Guess we&#039;ll be testing the public school waters or it&#039;s to the burbs for us!</description>
