my mom asked me to buy flowers to bring to church for my dad's first death anniversary. i ordered an arrangement in a heart-shaped box online.
when my mom asks me to buy something, she usually pays for it. yeah, i accept the payment. to me an errand is an errand. a gift is a gift.
i normally get the payment later when my credit card bill is already due. i almost always charge stuff i buy to my card.
i posted a photo of the flowers on my mom's facebook account. was i surprised to see she replied to those who commented that they were from me for my dad.
oh!
i thought they were from her to my dad!
i don't give flowers. i give food.
if the flowers were from me, i would have gotten a chocolate or fruit bouquet. yup, even for the dead.
