Old Me: Driving in the car with friends before thanksgiving cussin at the houses with lights up (and on). REMEMBER THANKSGIVING PEOPLE!
New Me: I should get my lights up before it gets too cold. I work so hard to decorate it, one month of enjoyment just seems too short!
Old Me: Mom, no one cares what your house looks like. Why do you clean so much before people come over? They aren't looking at your baseboards.
New Me: Company coming this weekend, starting with blinds, then baseboards, walls, cabinets organized, vacuumed, carpets cleaned. Christmas decorations up by then? Think I should do some touch-up painting?
Old Me: I am going to work so hard to get my child to eat healthy food. I do not want a picky eater!
New Me: Sure, honey, you can have a sucker for breakfast. You get all your calories from your milk anyway, right? Here, snack on these greasy chips while you watch Barney for the 3rd time. Make sure to rub them into the carpet good, I want to get my moneys worth when we clean them this weekend!

Old Me did a pretty good job getting the first 2 through toddler stages and being consistent. New me, spoils the heck out of the last 2 and does not care a bit! We are sooo related!
We all have to grow up one day...
