Mom was right....again

I've found that over the years I keep doing things and then soon after saying, "Mom was right."
I don't have any problem admitting that I'm wrong....okay, maybe just a little problem!
As a teenager, and even as an adult I thought I knew it all and that I was capable of doing everything on my own. What can I say? I'm an independent gal. Always have been. Its only now, that I'm a married woman, building my own life for my own little family that I'm able to say; Yes, I'm independent but I'll always need my Mom's advice and I've learned that she's been there and she's right and she's only telling me these things because she has my best interest at heart.

So here's one more for ya, Mom......

Last night, I worked late. Got stuck in traffic on my already 1 hour 15 minute commute home. Got home late. Hubby had a track meet (he got weaseled into coaching cross country this year at school....he wasn't excited about it then, and needless to say....the excitement level is still the same, ha!) and got home late too. Dinner doesn't make itself and I was hungry. We had some little snack cakes just lying there on the kitchen counter, so while hubs was in the shower I ate one.....or two!
 I didn't want to fix dinner, so hubs helped me out. When it was finished, I wasn't hungry :(
As I sat there, eyeing my half eaten dinner I couldn't help but hearing my Mother over and over in my head, "You can't eat dessert first, you'll spoil your dinner."
I admit it, its true. Dammit!!
Eating dessert first might seem like a good idea at the time and it sure tasted good but since I spoiled my dinner and couldn't finish it because of my dessert indulgence...guess who woke up with her tummy growling at midnight last night???? Yup, me!
