My son recently moved to Chicago and is bunking with his sister and looking for a job. She loves having him there, she said it's like having a wife (she works long challenging hours and is in an MBA program). Seriously when we graduated from college most of us (in my peer group) got married relatively quick and established a home and now it's different and quite a bit more financially challenging, esp if one wants to stay single longer.

Bring money:) Love Mom Son,

Okay it's gone from my head and right into one of the many boxes sitting in my apartment as I count down the hours until I move back to my womb....I mean room. All joking aside, I am truly blessed to have forged an incredible relationship with my "mom" and I look forward to building upon what is not only a wonderful relationship but truly a priceless friendship. As my "mom" said in a previous post....more to come, stay tuned. So what's for dinner when I get back? ;) With love, The "son" Wow, I must say that all this attention has gone straight to my head.

Think positively. You will have a live in decorator:) Seriously...it was one thing to deal with college kids not finding a job but now we are also dealing with grown children losing their jobs and coming home. I didn't think I would be using my social security to support my kids? Becky,

Relax.
