you see another way for me to gauge whether or not Christmas is here is when my mom starts having her menopausal fits. Yup it doesnt matter to think that menopause was a few year back, it doesn't bear much to know she should be done with the symptoms by now...like irritability and the like. because it's scarier to think that this kind of person is who she really is.
Her mood swings are perennially there. It changes fast and its range is wide. Whoever and whenever it suits it happens. She just came home from a retreat this afternoon. Yes a retreat. A time when you're supposed to be calm, collected and blessed. her first words were "Magusap usap tayo. Wala kasi kayong pakialamanan sa isa't isa..". Hi to you too mom, right? And if you think this kind of thinking is going to ease up as the countdown to Christmas edges on, you are thinking wrong. She just came back for round two. I've learned from experience you just keep quiet and take it in. Regardless. Wait round three....four...five is about to start.
