After about 5 years of asking my mother if she wanted a DVD player,
she finally said yes. The ladies by where she lives are starting to have
a movie night once a week. My mother has a bad back and it’s hard for
her to get around. So the ladies said they would have it over her place
so she didn’t have to go up and down the stairs. I burn a Frank Sinatra
concert for her. Then I went to the store, bought a DVD player and took
it to her place to hook it up. I’m explaining to her how to work the DVD
player. We’re standing by the TV and the Sinatra concert starts to
play. My mother is standing half a foot away from the TV, with a big
smile on her face watching the TV screen. After about a minute, I said
to her, “Why don’t you come and sit down.” She would have stood there
for the whole show if I didn’t say anything.
Now I’m gonna burn a Louis Prima DVD for her and when I go there next Saturday, we’ll watch it.
