Please Excue Mom


Dear Death Panel:

Please excuse Mom from appearing in front of you for determination. She is just so busy right now. Look I know she is 83 and in bad health but she has a lot of things on her to do list. Right now all of the carpets haven’t been cleaned three times apiece although she is giving them a good go. That happens when you let her go out and buy a new rug shampooer. Also she replaced her old washer and dryer with fancy new ones and is in the process of washing every thing in sight. And she wonders why Merlin is hiding under the bed until I get home from work to protect him. He doesn’t want a bath that bad. Mom also needs to get all her paperwork together and on Quicken. You know how long it takes to get an elderly person to figure out these new fangled machines. Her dinosaur still has Windows 3.5 and we can’t upgrade because she doesn’t like the newer stuff. She is also still trying to find all of the things that have gone missing over the last 30 years in the house. This place has at least 9,000 cupboards, cabinets, hidey-holes, basements with multiple rooms, attic, and who knows what else where these things could have been placed for safe storage. I think Mom should be done in about 30 years if you want to check back.

Thanks,
Her Only Daughter


PS: Pixie says she needs Mom to do the most important job of all and provide quality lap time in increments of 30 minutes to 3 hours at her bidding. You are well aware of course that the “kitty rules” out way your silly meetings aren’t you?
