My mother could have been Edith Bunker.

I remember Mom used to stay up late to see the weather report on TV. Most of the time she was asleep before the weather report came on. One time she actually made it through the weather report. The forcaster said to expect a lot of precipitation tomorrow morning. Sure enough it was pouring down rain in the morning. Mom looked out the window and said, “It sure is participating out there.”

Another time my aunt and uncle came to visit whit their “free spirit” daughter in tow. Sunday morning, Mom asked my cousin if she’d like to go to Church with all of us. We were Baptists. She politelitely refused. My aunt told my Mon on the way to Church her daughter was an agnostic. Mom asked, “Is that one of those Methodist groups?”
