After becoming the 24-7 caregiver for my old mother.

A Poem by h d e rushin

What we really need
is a wider and shorter plates of Nacho's.

No more tall towers of chips
and toppings.

Spread the toppings across
a large area and cover all the chips

not just the top layer.

Your mother is in the best possible hands.

Beccy.

Me too my dear friend. Happy New Year.
We divided the duty with my Dad. We became his "staff." Still, not the worst job I ever had. Hope you keep your job a long time.
