i desperately want to ship home a cordless phone. sounds simple right..?
my father's recovering from his second stroke and things dont look all that well. he gets his share of good & bad days. today he kept telling me over the phone, that he was thinking about me. he told me this over & over. he easily forgets things now so he doesnt know he's repeating. it broke my heart but i played along. afterwards, i begged my mother to be patient with him because i know how it can drive you nuts & then some. i have a four yr old myself!
i only wanted to buy a cordless phone just to make his life a little easier. that way he doesnt have to get off the bed to answer the phone. i delayed mailing it for a few days , my husband's friend is taking it to sri lanka when he goes on vacation this week. i was happy that would take less days to reach home. our friend is suppose to drop it off at my in laws house, which is much closer to his. my always generous f-i-l promised me he would take care of the rest. i was on cloud nine, until now..
my husband has second thoughts and thinks we cant just send off a package to his house without sending a "gift" for his family too. why? he fears his parents would be offended! now that brings up a whole set of can of worms, but i do not want to go there.
so now i am running off to USPS to mail it off, which is how i wanted it done in the first place..!!!!
why do things always have to be politically correct?
