Did not do very much yesterday… I did mileage calculations so that Jay could work out tax return….gave me time to realise that I am… turning into my mom.
Everybody dreads it…. you start to hear her voice and her words coming out of your mouth along with her expressions, habits and particularities. I realised I was turning into Mom when I saw that I was competing against myself everyday… to see how much my foot/ankle had improved. When my Mom had a mastectomy a few years ago (at 82), she was given a booklet with progressive physio exercises and for the first week or so, I helped her do them everyday until she got used to doing them herself. Everyday we would do them and every day she would boast to me how much better she was at doing them and how much further she could stretch…. sound like anyone? Yesterday she phoned me at around 9pm when she should have been in bed. Well, she was in bed actually… excitedly supporting Spain against the Netherlands (mostly because she didn’t know exactly where the Netherlands were)…. she told me the score and asked why on earth I wasn’t watching it (Netflix – Breaking Bad)….I had planned to watch the second half and am very glad I did (this is turning out to be a spanking World Cup so far)…..
I also saw my mom in this video:

….. well I didn’t see her as such… but I saw her. This lady pretty much does what my mom does. I know it’s nearly Father’s Day…. but I really hope I grow up to be like my mom…..
