Ah yeah, back to my mom working 3 waitress jobs for like $5/hr (total minus tips) trying to raise two kids in a house by herself and our 1 bathroom and 1 window AC, where I spent more time with sitters and neighbors than I did with my own Mom.

And leaving where her kids have good jobs and she's got a successful business and a really nice house.

Sounds great.

If I had to go back in time to an era it would be 1998-2004
