The party mom...

Since I can remember, I have been told my mom is the funniest person around. Which she can be... my friends would rather "hang" with her than me... yea and she wondered why I wouldn't bring friends home.

My husband's sister got married last year. I have been married to her brother for 20 years and she is my age... first marriage... anyway, she and I had mutual friends in HS. At the reception, I had no where for mom to sit, the tables filled up quickly and I found an open seat at a table with the friends. Lo and behold, I come over with a drink for mom and she's already downing them! She's chugging Whiskey Sours with our friends! One of the husbands turns to me and says "Pam, your mom is a pissa!" Great! Thanks! Yea I know that... but Tom, don't get her drunk please... Mom had polio as an infant so she is unsteady on her feet to begin with.

When the reception started, mom was sitting at another table with my husband's great aunts and they were calling her over "Hey Marie! Come and drink with us!" They called my mom over to party... not me but mom...Party on mom!

BTW: When my daughter was about 4 yrs old, she came over to me and said "You know mom, grandma has a drinking problem." Really dear, why do you think that? "Because every time she trips she says, "Woops, drunk again!""

Yea my mom is a riot!
