Used To Cats

One thing that happens when you live with very old people, like Him and Her, you hear a lot about what they used to do. He used to go and play bridge, which is a card game. He does a lot of the things He used to do. He does more than She does. To be fair, She is older than He is, so maybe that is part of it. To me, it is not about what She does and doesn't do, because some of it is about how hard it is for Her to move around, or because She doesn't have so much money. What She talks about is what She used to like to do and now She doesn't like it anymore. The first thing is cooking. She used to be a very good cook, because She learned cooking from Her Grandma. It is kind of not fair that now She is a Grandma, and She doesn't teach anyone how to cook. She used to cook with Mazie, but Mazie liked fish sticks and french fries. Not much cooking there. One thing She used to like was planning meals. She doesn't like that so much anymore. Sometimes it gets to be kind of tiresome but She feels it is part of Her role around here, since She is weak and slow, and He does so many things for Her. She gets things for the freezer and every day She goes and gets something out and fixes it. It is a rare day when She cooks a recipe. When She does, She often asks Him to cut things up. Today She made a recipe out of the food She got from Rocky'sMom, but He had to cut everything up. The nice thing is, He likes to do that. The good thing about what He and She used to do is that they watch old movies and TV shows. Some come in the mail every week. I love what She fixes, so I will stay here and get old with Him and Her, and someday I will say - I used to eat pink fish with Him and Her. And I still do. Stay tuned.
