Mom Keeps Me UP At Night

Thanks to Roman May

My mom totally has me worried – does anyone else feel that way about a parent that they don’t live near? She’s totally self reliant and all but since she’s all the way out in Texas, I’m worried that she won’t tell me if things ever get bad. For example, I know from one of her neighbors that she’s been having trouble affording her groceries as of late. I felt terrible when I heard but since Mom never told me, I didn’t have any idea! I immediately sent her a Walmart gift card and got to work trying to save her some money. I helped her refinance her house and I even walked through ShopElectricityRatesTexas.com with her so she could find out if she was paying too much for energy, which she was. She’s cut down on her driving which is saving her some gas but I just want to make sure there’s nothing else she needs. It’s tough when I know she’s too prideful to tell me anything!
