me: yes, i am tutoring Raul after school and then I have to go to the bank but I forgot my bank stuff so I have to walk home and get it and then walk back up to the bank it will be a good hour or so of just walking….

mom: wow!!! good exercise if nothing else!! I haven't walked in a while…. I got diarrhea and couldn't take a chance on leaving the house!!!! also the other day when ED and I were walking,,, i sat down in the car to go for our walk and ripped a 12 inch split in my pants!!! but I went ahead and walked and luckily not one car came by!!!!

me: haha!

mom: my butt must be getting bigger

me: that's so funny about your pants…not your butt. i think my butt is getting bigger from walking so much

mom: not the butt is not a laughing matter!!!! me too!!!

me: haha

mom: but if I don't walk then my stomach will get bigger. i just can't win!!!

me: it's true. well, i need to get going –the bell is about to ring!

mom: ok…I love you so much!!!!! and miss you take care of yourself!!!!

me: i will! love you too! miss yoU!
