I was telling her about how much the cat has benefited from her new heating pad. “I know!” I said. “I’ll get YOU a heating pad!”

“That does sound nice,” said Mum. It’s a hundred degrees in the shade in Barraba.

Also I apologized for all the times I was a crappy daughter.

“You were never a crappy daughter,” she said. “Oh, except when you were dating Pig Boy.” Pig Boy is our pet name for a certain ex-boyfriend.

“His feet were too big,” said Mum.

“Your SONS have big feet,” said Sarah.

“That’s totally different. They’re my sons.”
