THE SHARON DIARY

Dear Diary,
Today I drove Jaiydynn to his private all-boys elementary school. But I left the parking lot and ran over his iPhone XR which he had dropped on his way in. That young man should learn to be more careful with his belongings! His 10th birthday was only a month ago, and he's already broken his present. Needless to say  we will be going to the Apple store after his soccer game tomorrow to pick up an iPhone 11 pro. These kids with their iPhones. Back in my day, if me and my girlfriends went out somewhere and we got sexually harassed or kidnapped, so what! These young kids need to learn not to be so sensitive. Gryfynne was at a sleepover last night so I had a pretty stress free morning other than that. She has a YouTube channel with 995k subscribers. She told me she was going to do a 24 hour challenge with her friends, whatever that means. When I pick her up from her high school I have to bring her to volleyball practice. Volleyball! I told her, "Gryfynne, soccer really seems like the way you should go. You could make new friends!" but she wanted to do it anyways. You know, you can't stop the kids from being happy. Kayleigh left home 2 months ago to move into her apartment in Boston because she got accepted into Harvard Medical. Don't tell anyone, but she's my favorite. So successful! If only the other kids would follow in her footsteps. With them at school and Kayleigh all grown-up and moved out, I have so much free time on my hands! Who knew decorating the house could be so fun? Our three-story mid-century modern home has really been looking so much less bleak after I discovered Pinterest. Live Laugh Love! I love that quote. It's on our fridge. And I never would have known about it without Pinterest. It also has all these wonderful baking ideas, I made 3 batches of gluten-free vegan brownies for the kids' sporting events. They weren't dry, thank the Lord! The other moms at the soccer and tennis games need to learn how to bake. If your donations taste bad, don't even bother!
