Making Progress

Woke up before the alarm y’all. It’s been a bit since that happened. Likely it’s due to the fact I slept pretty well last night. I’m even pretty sure I know why.

I finally have more than one box packed!

My mother was a huge help and she only said one semi-passive-aggressive thing the whole evening. Probably that’s to due the fact that I also ticked off several things on my to-do list for her.

Don’t get me wrong, I had no doubts that she would help me, but it was nice that she kept the passive-aggressive remarks to a minimum.

So I love my mom. I even like her almost all the time. But she has this tendency to be snarky.

No, that’s not really the right word. Snarky implies intent and an edge. She doesn’t really seem to even know she is doing it and it doesn’t really have an edge, at least not anymore. That could be because I no longer let it cut me though. Who knows?

All I know is that I’m grateful for her help and that she loves me. No matter what, I never doubt that she loves me.

I got pretty lucky in the mom lottery. I know I complain about things she does and says that drive me crazy, but I know she’s a great mom and a good person.

I can’t wait to start my life with Tennessee (only one more week!) but I’m going to miss my Mom.
