So would somebody please just tell me what to do.

I hear that question about every single day in my household

because my little girl, my oldest child, Olivia, is not a little girl anymore.

She's 17 years old, she's a junior in high school,

she is smart, she is fun, she is beautiful,

but for the first time in her life,

she's experienced in adult-like decisions.

So decisions like, what am I going to do after high school?

What kind of career do I want to go into?

How am I going to manage my time with school, extracurricular activities, a social life, a job on top of that.

So at some point, almost every single day she gets a little bit overwhelmed.

She's a little uncertain of what she should do and she will look at her mother or she will look at me and she will say,

would somebody please just tell me what to do? And I get it, like I get it. Because how nice would it be if you woke up tomorrow morning and there was somebody in your house?

Okay, that'd be creepy. But if there was somebody in your house who was there just to tell you what to do.

Like, hey, here's what you need to wear to work based on the

weather today and here's what you should have for breakfast that's going to make you

feel great all day long. Here's what time you need to leave for school taking

traffic into consideration and when you get to leave for school taking traffic into consideration.

And when you get to work, here's the emails you need to answer,

and here's the ones you get to ignore.

Here's what you can make for dinner in under 15 minutes,

and everybody's gonna love it.
