Wrapping up warm: Feb 14 2014 #mumism

Todays mumism made me chuckle. We were out for a wee bit of fresh air and I was wrapping her up & tucking her into her wheelchair...

Mum: For goodness sake will you stop it - people with think I'm your aged mother!
Me: Or maybe just my mum?
Mum: Don't be daft you're near enough my age

Juggling: February 8th 2014 #mumism

Tonights mumism...after a erm challenging evening of trying to get her to come home. It's tough visiting dad sometimes as because mum used to live there she still feels it's home. The thing I find most difficult is respecting her feelings while at the same time having other things that really need done - like picking the kids up.  Because mum doesn't remember that she doesn't live there anymore so doesn't understand why she has to come with me and so clearly, in her mind, I've a bee in my bonnet and it's not her problem!

Mum: I hope to god my daughters don't turn out like you!

Sometimes all you can do is laugh...we got her home and she's snug as a bug and forgotten all about me being the cow from hell now.  Tomorrow is another day...
