actually! I think Tink's mom understated her problem!
I have been bemusedly reading all the comments, and it struck me!
I'll bet that besides looking frantically for your iron, you were mad at YOURSELF for not taking better care of it, berating yourself because you knew your mind was going, but you hadn't realized how bad you had gotten, trying to remember the last class you had taken it to ...
Now, you not only have to remember every move you have made over the last six weeks, your son is making you remember every move HE makes! Shame on the youngster ... doesn't he know that you are fragile???
I still think amma has the proper response .... LOL
