[quote=Anonymous]My 91 y.o. mom is divorced, and a mild hoarder. She's full of energy and positivity, and the kids love her, but man is she a lot of work. I arranged for her part-time nurse to drive her over for the day to see the kids. She started going on about some old blankets she got from a woman who was selling her house, and would I like some? No thank you, mom. And just kept going on, are you sure, you don't want even one? No, no, no I don't need any, mom. And you know, she wouldn't let up, and I should just say sure, I'll take one, but I knew the next phase would be: which one, which color....so all of a sudden I said, "Mom, why are you collecting old blankets? That's something Dad would do." Then the s**t really hit the fan and she was furious. "Well. So glad I came." and I had to talk her down from gathering her nurse and tennis-balled walker and shuffling out the door. [/quote]
