To my neighbors: Please stop asking me how my mother is doing. You have known her for some time and you also have her number. You can call her and find out for yourself.
Dear people who haven't seen me in a long time:
Stop asking me the same questions. I am tired of having the same long drawn out conversations about my mother, my sisters, my brother, etc., etc.? If you really wanted to know how everyone was doing you would look us up and call. The number has been the same for the last 32 years and guess what -- it's listed!! I am not a celebrity and neither are my siblings. The way you approach me you would think my name is Latoya and I had a brother named Michael.
