Ouch! *giving cleaning lady a good virtual whack with her broom*
ReplyDeleteUGH! Thanks a lot. NOT!
ReplyDeleteSorry, that sucks!
Here is why I'm known for having no tact...because when she said she was 39, I would have responded with "Wow, you must have started really young - or your children did." And then she would have been offended, and the conversation would have ended. :)
ReplyDeleteI hate these kind of conversations with fertile strangres, why does every conversation have to revolve around offsprings or the lack there of.
ReplyDeleteUgh, I'm sorry. However, the way you wrote it made me giggle.
ReplyDeleteI know--is it terrible that I'm laughing right now?
ReplyDeletewow... just wow.
ReplyDeleteHope you're enjoying being home (despite 39 year old CL grandmas).
Ah age.....first I was dying to be 25....and now I refuse to believe that I am several years beyond that...throw babymaking in the mix...and I am feeling rosy!
ReplyDeleteHugs.
She has 2 already? OMG, my ovary hasn't even learned what it's supposed to do yet unless someone pokes it with a hot poker. I'd forget to flush next time she's coming over. (Not really but it's fun to say.)
ReplyDeleteI hope you're enjoying your time.
you most definitely do not want to be a 39 year old grandma. no no no.
ReplyDeleteThat has gotta sting, I am sorry honey. But you will be a Mom one day. Hang onto that.
ReplyDeletexxx
She's only 39 and has grandkids already!?!? OMG!
ReplyDeleteI hated comments like that too. We mostly got: "You've been married for 5 years, when are you going to have kids?!" Oy vey.
:(
Wow, with your other commentors, don't want to be a grandma yet!
ReplyDeleteAreyoukiddingme has a good idea too.
WOW! even though i would love to be a mother someday soon, i am SO thankful that i'm not a grandmother in my 30s. geesh!
ReplyDeleteI hear about 39 year old grandmas and I shake my head. But at the same time -- ouch!! That would've gotten to me ...
