Some people, you just can NOT show how to do the right thing!

My Mother .does everything the HARD way.

It drove me nuts (I have even pleaded with Camille)

Notice I said drove me nuts

Up until 5 minutes ago.

My Mother is a teaching tool.

By design.

What a freaking relief!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The crazy things my Mother does, no longer bothers me.

Example: (And there are sooooooooooooooo many!!!!!)

Trying to put the working end of a pretty BIG can opener (Well made AMERICAN!!!!!) in to the silverware compartment of a dish strainer it falls out every time ..you can t teach her and it is by design!!!!!

Or she will sit a plate of cat food in the middle of the hallway, near the bathroom, where I have to walk at night sometimes ..I am human too .sometimes I will have juice or a beer or two on the down low before bed Mom .Shhhhhh . and I might have to take a wiz ..very little light .I almost tripped one night!!! %$# is definitely getting out of control!!!! (No health insurance either but I have Camille)

The moral of the story:

Some people you just cannot change by teaching .by design.
