Son: I'm revising my opinion of you Mom

Me: Oh, you mean now you don't really hate me, you just hate me?

No, no, you weird woman, I mean I am being forced to look at you in a new light...

Why?

Well, all my friends can't be wrong....unless I have a problem with my friends and I don't.

Erm, now I'm worried.

No need to be, they reckon you rock.

I rock?

Yes but they don't see what I see.

What's that then?

You're seriously weird

Define weird

You do your own thing and don't care what people think. That's cool

Thanks...I think.

Energetic and eccentric, that's you Mom.

I like that

Other parents just don't talk properly...they think teenagers are stupid, you don't

Well son, thanks for all that and you're right, I don't think teenagers are stupid, I think teenagers rock.

Oh Mom, don't use our lingo, that's just meh coming from an oldie like you.....can I have an advance on next weeks pocket money?

    What a wonderful idea, wish I had thought of it. When I think of all the things that have had me laughing or crying or both over the years then yes, you're right, it should be recorded. Love the video...they are so gorgeous at that age....good rate though £10 for 5 days, I'd take them up on that!

    Nice conversation - especially the punchline! Have also just read through the previous sagas. I'm so glad all was well... but having been through such scares -more than scares - myself - could more than empathise. Very hard to cope with. Meditation - what's that? But doesn't it make you see life/health differently.

    Onwards and upwards... this comment full of cliches. But who cares. Your well and that's it. x

    Apparently I rock too Mags, as you say, it's because you treat them as people or at least talk to them in "a normal way"

    Hope the health clears up; keep enjoying the outdoors, it's good for you and it's free!
