My life thus far with BILLIE BOO

Every morning I wake up to a timid voice that says..." Wohooo , wake up ". This is always followed by a soft knock on the door and a small jingle of the handle. Dialogue with Billie moments that must be shared are as followed: " You are always on that computer...you need a boyfriend " " You have tall friends who should put up our dishes in the cupboards " " Can u open this with ur little iron fingers?? " Ur good at cleaning....it must be in your blood " Your friend Jorge has an amazing facial structure " " You like Mexican boys dont you? " The list can go on & on. My life with an 86 year old woman never has its dull moments. Tip #1- Follow through with the plans you tell someone...if they change..let them know. Example A- "Ill be back at 5 Billie before I go to The Gathering". Well I happened to be running a little late that day...so there was a no show at the house when she was expecting me. While we were all at my friend Mikeys home I was informed that my mum needed me to reach her ASAP. I hurriedly dialed her number thinking the worse had happened. Then next sentence I hear makes me laugh & feel horrible all at the same time. " Christina...Since you didnt show up at 5, Billie called the Police who are at my door & all the Hospitals thinking you had been in an accident" There goes my heart to my stomach. After 30 minutes of mind blowing phone calls, I realized I wasnt my free butterfly self anymore. I was responsible & accountable to someone. Something I hadnt had for a long time. It was definately a life lesson I had to learn in a very crazy way. Now I know though.... CALL TO CONFIRM...ALWAYZ...haha.
