I forgot to blog the other day about our fun times with mother when she comes to our condo! Mother is usually either excited to come to our condo or she hates it and gives the girls a hard time. Recently we had mother come over on a Saturday and stay with us. She was excited to come hang out and told us she loved it there! I knew we would have a good night!
I had some of my family coming in for the Eagles game the next day so I wanted to make sure I had any cleaning/cooking done before mother came on Saturday night so we could hang out all night. I think the last time mother came over I was running around doing laundry and cleaning and straightening up she did not like it. I think it made her uncomfortable seeing me run all over and could not help.
This time was different as soon as mother arrived we walked her in to sit on the couch. I told her I missed her and asked how she was was, which is always "I am good" or "Okay". I had my computer open and there was a picture of my nieces and nephew. My sister had triplets in June so usually mother will ask how the "babies" are. Now it gets confusing because I don't know if she is referring to my sisters kids, Erik and Nancy's kids or the dog and cat. I knew though seeing the picture sparked the question about my sisters kids. I told her they were doing well and told her different things they were doing and showed her some more photos. At one point she leaned over me and said "Goochie Goochie Goo" and pointed to rub their faces on the computer screen. Josh was in the kitchen and looked at me with a look like "Did that just happen". I looked at mother and she leaned back and told me they were cute in her way.
I then like to ask mother whats going on in her life. I usually ask how the dog is doing and the cat. She loves talking about them and telling me they are crazy and best friends. She tells me how she holds the cat and pets it. After all these 2 are also her babies.
We then were watching TV just hanging out and mother just starts mumbling and laughing... about what I have no idea so I asked her and still to this day I have no clue.... I figured whatever she is happy and having fun....
I think it was sometime around 9:30pm when mother looked at me and said "Are we going to bed" I laughed and said "Bed? Its Saturday night" hahah.... she then laughed too.... moments later she asked again. I figured okay she is tired so I went and got a shower and Josh laid her down on the couch and tucked her in.
Josh being the gamer he is went back to playing his video games and let mother lay on the couch and watch TV. She seemed content. I came out and joined her on the couch and we just continued to watch TV/Movies. I finally got tired and decided to go to bed. Josh said he was going to stay and sleep with mother on the couch I said okay and off to bed I went.
I woke up the next morning to Josh and mother up at like 7am or 8am... I was like what the hell... hahah.... way to early for me! I guess Josh was up till 4am playing video games while mother watched TV.... I wonder is mother even went to bed with all that commotion going on.
Josh dropped mother back off at the ATG house in the morning and came home... we heard from the girls that afternoon and they said "what did you do to mother? She has been sleeping all day. She barely gets up for food."
I knew right then and there that mother must have been up all night with the TV going, Josh yelling at his video game all night and then the heavy snoring Josh does after he drinks/games for 8 hours..... poor mother.....
