Thanks Mom
This poor kid. How often does your mom leave you in line? I thought it was something that just my mom did. It’s nice to know that I ma not the only one who had to deal with the torture of having to explain to people why I was taking so long. The embarrassment of not being able to pay for anything because she took her purse with her.

The utter frustration when she came back saying that she couldn’t find whatever it was she went to look for in the first place. I think she secretly hid and watched me as I stood in line freaking out. She always seemed to show up as soon as I was about to walk away.
