Sigh.... Even after nine months I'm still not used to having to think for my mother.
Today I did a bunch of running around in the morning and then when I got home, I had just sat down and she came to me and said - do you have any sugar???
I thought she'd just misplaced it, so I went to the kitchen to look. And yes, we were actually out. It was on the tip of my tongue to say why didn't you TELL me but....
Sigh. I should have thought to check but I wasn't going out specifically to get groceries... which is when I check and see what we're out of or low on. And god dammit... I don't understand how one person can go through a 2kg bag of sugar in a month. All she uses it for is to make TEA! How much sugar is she putting in the damn tea anyway????
Anyway... I wasn't going to go out again just to get sugar. So then I had to put up with mother asking me about sugar every five minutes since that is the nature of the beast.
