Ma'am

I know it's been a little while since my last post and I do have several pics and stories to post, but I have to take a moment a vent. I was handling some paperwork at our clubhouse today and when we'd finished everything up, the man I was working with called me "ma'am". I know I really shouldn't even be phased by it, but for whatever reason, I was. I'm 30 years old and nowadays that's not old by any standard! And even if I'm a mom, does that automatically put me in the category of "ma'am"? I'm sure he was just being polite and respectful and didn't intend any offense, but I guess I'm just not quite ready to hear "ma'am" and do it gracefully. Oh well. Does that make me immature? Hmmm. See, I'm not even DESERVING of "ma'am"!! :-)

hehe, I hate that too. you definitely don't look even close to being old enough to be a ma'am. though, i'm not sure we will ever want to be called ma'am. :)

ma'am isn't something I like either. Honey is the other one that bugs me.

You are ABSOLUTELY not old enough to warrant being called Ma'am.
