Anxiety

I am kind of anxious for a couple of reasons:

2. Allowing my Mom to give and/or cook me meals (unsolicited). My Mom is such a sweetie and cooked me a whole bunch of meals for me to take home with me the last time I was there.

The other part of me says the time we have together is precious and I don't want to taint the wonderful gift my mom is giving me.

This includes my milk share for the month, 2 liters of olive oil, 2 pounds of honey, and 1/3 of a pound of cheddar cheese. This is a little expensive and maybe not so affordable. Hard cheeses in general are super pricey and so ...
