Moms. They know things.
“All women become like their mothers. That is their tragedy. No man does. That’s his.”
~ Oscar Wilde
in continuation of a previous post, the care package from my mom arrived yesterday. just in time for Easter non-long weekend.
i have no idea how she knew that i am rationing my last stick of lip balm. or that i have been trying to make the bottom of a giant bottle of vitamin E lotion last another 4 weeks… and how did she know that i haven’t had a single second to do laundry this week month and was genuinely wondering what i would wear while washing every thread i own tomorrow?
Moms know. they just do.

Made me dig up a post of the carepackage my mom sent me in 06 (of mostly cough medicine) and also a separate package of cleverly concealed drugs.. LOL. ( http://northofjapan.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html )

How long does it take a parcel to get there?

That’s a very nice care package. Was there anything in there that answered the question of why she asked about your milk drinking habits?

Joanne – packages from Canada can take anywhere from 5 business days to 6 weeks, depending on how much you want to pay.
Cristina – oh right! she actually wanted to send some Nestle chocolate milk powder. but couldn’t find a conveniently shippable size. : ))
