[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom: So many to choose from. She reads every piece of her mail word for word, including bills. It's great because she is on any rate hikes or utility changes like a hawk. Not so great is how she often reads "quietly" out loud to herself, which is actually quite audible for everyone else. She does the daily jumble every day (the word bubble puzzle in the paper). She leaves long pauses on her voicemail messages for me to respond. "Hi, how are you?" Long pause. "I was just checking to see if you wanted me to babysit for your anniversary." Long pause. Her messages take ages to get through. She prints out every picture of the kids that we email her on her grainy color printer so she can stick them up in her kitchen. She loves them. If I get a bunch of photos printed, she will send them to all the other elderly relatives and keep her printouts. She is 77 years old, and I love her so, so much.[/quote] PP , Give her a big hug from me![/quote]
