Another exercise in writing as someone else. These are what I imagine her thoughts would be if she could come to visit.
So much clutter. She's still got her Christmas cards up. Those couches
are nice. The cushions don't match. I remember that table. What a beautiful picture. Oh, that's the one from the cover of
Andrew's book. It's quite a spacious unit, really, nice for Housing Department.
At least she's comfortable. I like the open plan but I wonder why she has to
have her office in the living room. It's not what I'd like for myself, but it
seems to suit her. I wouldn't like to have to go up and down those front steps
too often. But I'm glad she's got those good rails in the bathroom, to hang on
to; I feel more secure. I wish she'd get rid of those big fake flowers. She says they have
sentimental value. I think they look silly. I wish she'd at least put them in
another room. She looks well, I will say that.
This is beautiful Rosemary. And it sounds just like a mother would think and remark about one of her offspring's home. Love it, made me smile.
ReplyDeleteI feel quite sure it's what my Mum would have thought. (Smile.)
