e-mail! My brother and sister in law brought my mom to the library a few weeks ago and set up an e-mail account for her. She started out just e-mailing two times a week. She kept saying she hoped she wasn't a bother. I made the mistake of telling her it wasn't a bother and that I liked hearing from her (which was true at the time).
Now she is emailing me every day except for Sunday (the library is closed). She wants to hear back from me daily so I am trying to keep up but then she gets upset that I don't write long letters back. YIKES!!! Her feelings would be way too hard to tell her to write only a couple of days a week. Yet my life is not so exciting that I have stuff to write about daily (I try to keep her out of the difficult child loop as much as possible).
