Mom is here, Liz is there, ee-yi-ee-yi-oh

So Mom's been rehashing all week, and this morning was no exception, even tho she was just telling us abt a convo she had w/Dad when she got back. Long trip, totally worth it, Liz situated, yada, yada, yada. But I didn't realise till just now that Liz has told Mom she's not coming home 4 Xmas. Gotta say I'll miss seeing U, Liz, but also WTG! Cuz shizzit, look what happs when U do come home. & it's not like U need another New Year's with Granthony. Mom was blathering on & on abt how "priceless" quality time is, & I almost spat out my triple-shot grande latte, cuz I'd just gotten a txt fr. Liz saying "OMG, Apes, can I even tell U how glad I am that my time w/Mom is over? I thought it was gonna B forever!"

Mom is off 2 take Iris 2 yardsales, cuz Gramps was all "I don't wanna do that hen stuff." Nice, Grampers.

Apes out

    Hey, Apes! Sorry yr mom screwed up the recipe again. MayB u should give me a recipe that yr mom can cook an' Ill c if my mom will pretend its Bajan.

    I asked my mom what recipe she tot yr mom an' my mom said "cou-cou" an' then started laughing an' laughing. I heard my mom talking 2 my dad l8r. She was still laughing. She said yr mom kept asking my mom all sorts of questions abt me, like what r my fav foods, what r my fav tv programmes, and even what r my fav colours. Yr mom said 2 my mom that yr dad should take us horseback riding like he used 2. My dad said I only took them 2 ride ponies @ the pony farm 1X 4 Duncans 6th birthday an' then they both started laughing so hard I thot they were going 2 bust something. NEway, they kept saying "Cou-cou Elly" 2 each other and laughing all night when they thot I wasnt listening.

    I went over 2 Kimmis this am 2 c if I could c her but her mom was sitting on the front porch. Mrs. L. started yelling @ me, saying stay away from my Kimmi u perv, Elly Patterson told me all abt u.

    I dunno, Apes, I just dont get yr mom @ all. Im glad shes going shopping 2morrow so she wont B there when I come over 2 jam.

    L8r.

    wow, dunc, it is so weird that my mom wd badmouth u 2 kimmi's mom, cuz she was goin' out of her way 2 say how great u r when she got back fr. the yardsales 2day. what a psycho, no joke. oh, the recipes she's best @ making r the kind where u just throw all yr ingredients in2 a casserole dish & bake it 30 min. that she can handle ok.

    i think when my mom tried 2 make the cou-cou, she 1st used 2 much water & then dried it out 2 much. whatta loooooozer.

    becks, soundz like u can't w8 2 get home. tho i guess yr mom will b in "recovery mode" when u do. oh, btw, when my mom got yr mom's messg, she got all teary-eyed & ran upstairs. i almost felt bad 4 her, but then i found the list of chores she wrote up 4 me 2 do this wkend. yucko.

    Hey, Apes! My mom thinks KD an' a bit of curry powder baked in a casserole dish might fool yr mom. But my 'rents r rilly in2 the "cou-cou Elly" jokes an' the Bajan rum 2nite so Im not sure shes serious. What do u think?

    p.s. I tried 2 visit Kimmi again this aft an' her mom says 2 me, Duncan Anderson, if u set foot on r property Ill have u charged an' I got this handy govt brochure from Elly Patterson on what 2 do 2 u.

    Oh, man. Id go 2 bed again but I hafta wash the sheets 1st 'cos I do all the laundry 2 work off my lawyers bill.

    C u 2morrow.

    p.p.s. Beckers, if u want me 2 play next weekend, I need a bonus 4 Bing band leader 'cos I need sumthing left over aft my 'rents take my regular $.

    dunc, abt the cooking, i don't know if yr 'rents were joking or not (who can tell w/g'ups?) but it soundz like something that mite work w/my mom. but who knows? mayB insteada trying 2 repeat what she just "learned" fr. yr mom, mine shd just make our dinner while she's there being supervised & take it home. i don't know y she didn't think of that herself.
