Hello Coco talks about life with mother

So I am wondering about a few things lately, such as do all elderly people walk around with their hands up the back of their shirts? I thought this was something only my mother did but I saw an elderly woman on a TV commercial the other day doing the same thing! Is it just a female thing or do men do it also? I would love to find out what other children of seniors have to discuss. I live with my mother so I have had a lot of experience with this topic. Living with your mother has got to be one of the most difficult things I have ever done. You grow up, get married, have children and then you can go home again. Your mother however has not realized any of these accomlishments or that you have aged. She does however notice that you have put on weight and does not mind commentning on that often. She also notices that your hair is a funny color and your skirt is way too short for someone your age. I am not allowed to cook in the house. Grilling is fine as long as it is done well away from the house so as not to turn the house black. I am well aware of the rule not to ever turn on the light on the fan atop the stove. I made a bad mistake of doing that one time and was told you never, ever turn the fan light on unless you are using the stove or oven. The stove is a complete different brand from the fan so I am not sure how they communicate this to each other but I can tell you I have never tried to use the fan light as a night light again.

I have decieded to become the Dear Abby of the internet. Tell me your troubles. No one knows much more about trouble than me. I will be called Hello Coco and you can get in touch with me at cocobeaupotts@gmail.com. I try to look at everything in my life with humor and see the good side of every person I meet. Get in touch I look forward to communicating with you.
