I had to go through all the trash bags because she threw away a lot of important papers I needed! So I asked her to just put everything she thought I didn't need in one bag so I could go through it later and pull out the important stuff. But I love my mom dearly. When she comes to visit me here she asks what she can do to help and I give her specific instructions.  |
How can you give your mum specific instructions WhyYou?
. If i tried that she'd box my ears lol. I guess mums still remember when we were kids and always tidying up after us and can't break the habit. My mum has just thrown out a load of my old clothes like jeans and t-shirts that have a few tears and holes in them. Even though they are only work clothes, so it doesn't actually matter lol. At least she never throws any paperwork away til i've checked it. All in all she a pretty good mum and i love her dearly, no matter what she does.
