Sanity Sunday.

Gma: Dear, you work too much.

Me: Grandma, when you were my age, you had three kids.

Gma: Yes...

Me: And you worked on the farm. And you worked shiftwork as a nurse.

Gma: Yes, but all the women did that!

Me: Well, I'm not doing the farm thing, and I'm not doing the kids thing. I think I can work two jobs.

Gma: *put out sigh* Well, alright then.
