Need your advice

You guys are my friends so I take your counsel wisely.

I thought I was being pretty productive today. I woke up and worked out, came home and had breakfast, took a nap, then a shower. Now I'm headed out to play a round of golf. My mom called me and is all mad because I'm not out looking for a job. Pisses me off because my day is pretty packed already and I don't have time for that.

I want to respect my mom but at the same time I don't like it when she gets on to me like that. It messes with my backswing.

Thoughts?


Also, does anyone know how to log in a round of golf?

    Just let her know you are trying, and that you need a day of not looking. Say something bout getting a fresh out look on things or something like that, and that you get she's concerned, but that she needs to trust you.....

    Not trying to be harsh here but I am assuming you are living at home too. If you were my son and that was your day I would not give you a dime and start charging you rent. I was brought up that you work so you can play.

    Maybe text her a picture of your gold scored card so she can truly see how productive you are. All moms like to be proud.

    That is an awesome idea. And I'll tell her that the high score wins

    She doesn't give me a dime. Taxpayers or somebody pays. I'm not sure which.

    You don't need to do anything to these thoughts, feelings or physical sensations. Instead, give them a nod of acknowledgement, continue breathing calmly and naturally for a few minutes to anchor yourself to the present moment. Remind yourself of the task at hand and that MeeseeksAndDestroy is a thespian. Also, remind yourself why you are doing it. As soon as you are ready, be it after a few seconds or several minutes of being still, continue on your chosen path.

    Just tell her you will make more money on welfare checks then you will working a part time job. It's the new norm.

    No, I'm not messing with you. I'm not sure where it comes from . All I know it wasn't enough to cover my cart fee today. That pissed me off.
