How Many Hats Are You Wearing?

Oh man!  It was a long Monday.  So long until it seemed like Friday by 12 noon.  My mama never told me there would be days like this!   I get up around around 5:30 and it is all in full speed from there.  Even though I have teenage boys, it still seems like I have to do a lot for them and remind them constantly of things.  By 7:20am I have taken my son to school and I am parking my car in the parking lot at work.  Up the hill I go, into my building.  My work hours are 8am to 5pm, but it never fails that the phone starts ringing around 7:50am and sometimes I forget and answer it.  I work at a university and there are over 500 students in our department.  All day its can you do this, will you do this, what do you thing about this, will you all offer this, who should I talk to about this, and the list goes on and on.  Now don't get me wrong I like my underpaid job, but when did I get that hat.

My son looked up Mama for me because I wasn't certain whether it was spelled momma or mama.  He came across an organization named "Mothers Against Misuse and Abuse (MAMA)."  Its goal is to promote better communication regarding the protection of kids and the development of drug policies.   I think that definition can apply to me many days.....misuse  and abuse.    How many hats can one woman wear?    Can someone help me with this answer?   Let me start the list:  mother, cook, maid, nourisher, driver, referee, barber, nail technician, psychologist, waiter, .........
