A Mom Who Embellishes on Facebook:

Put on facebook:  We remodeled our entire family room.

Actually:  I picked up all the toys for the first time in two years and discovered we had a different color of carpeting than what I had remembered.

Put on facebook:  I had lost over 50 pounds and was feeling terrific.

The truth:  I left the trunk open in our car coming home from Best Buy and our new television fell out on the tollway. It weighed about 50 pounds and I feel terrific that the police aren’t pressing charges for the 21 car pile-up I started.

Put on Facebook:  You may remember my telling you about our trip to California and how it gave us all stomach flutters to see wave after wave.

Actually:  We all had supper one night at the California Pizza Kitchen and got food poisoning and the wave after wave was actually…well you get the idea.
