Consumers R Us

I know I should be used to it by now, but I'm not.

It still surprises me that my cupboards and refrigerator can be fully stocked one week and then Bwammo! everything seems to be gone the next. Like gone, gone. With nothing but crumbs and cobwebs left behind. *sigh*

I once heard someone say that assembly-line workers were apt to depression because their work was so repetitive and they never felt like they made any progress.

Hell0-0-0-0! What about moms??

Especially us, Cuban mothers, whose self-esteem rises and falls depending on the satisfaction of their family and guests. (And okay, I know that's irrational and wrong, but that's not important right now.)

Today, Self-Portrait Tuesday finds me where you will always usually find me on Tuesdays, and surprisingly also on Thursdays, Saturdays and the odd-Monday afternoon.

I like to call this one:

"Mami in her natural habitat."

It's time for a Costco run now... ;-)
