I love my mom so much.
We have been best friends ever since I was a teenager.
We never really fought at all, and I knew that she was the mom and I was the child. I tried to obey, and to be honest, it was quite easy to obey her because she was so kind and easy going. We have opposite personalities, so I think that probably helps too. I know some of my friends have similar personalities with their moms, and they end up fighting a lot just because they are so much alike. My dad passed away about four years ago, and my mom has been doing quite well living on her own. I try to visit her as much as possible. Something that cracks me up is that she keeps her house super warm during the wintertime. It is literally eighty degrees or warmer in her house. I knew that she loved a warm house, but my dad did not let her keep it that warm when he was alive. Now that he is gone, she keeps to her preferred temperature. I pour sweat almost every single time that I am there. I have learned to dress in layers so that I can take some layers off when I go to visit her. I cannot imagine how much her electric bill costs, but apparently, she doesn’t care. My husband has tried to talk her into turning the heat down a little because he cannot stand it, but she always has an excuse why she wants it warm in the house. I love my mom dearly, even if she is crazy with her heat.
