Lillian,

Did you forget something today? Need a hint? We all use it during the day. (Well, most people do, anyway.) Give up? You left your lunch here again! See, you’re so busy worrying about me that you forget to take care of yourself in the process. That’s not good. You should not worry about me so much sometimes; I can take care of myself. I’m not a little child. I am in good hands with my co-workers and boss at the academy. My soul is not condemned to Hell either. You sound worse than my mum sometimes. Geez, lighten up, lass! I know that you had to raise your four younger brothers after your mum died, but you’re on your own now. That’s another thing. Your brothers are all in junior and high school with their dad now. Stop calling them twenty times a day! No wonder they complain to me about you. You’re practically stalking them, Pete sakes! Let them go already! Their father is there to take care of them now, so leave them alone. I mean what are you going to do when they get married? What will you do when Norman and I get married in two years? Yes, Norman and I have talked about getting married in our junior year of college. (Okay, we’re not engaged, yet! But he’s planning to purpose about the fall semester of our junior year. When he does, I am definitely saying yes!)

This brings me to another point of mine: thanks for not freaking out about my boyfriend anymore. I still can’t get the first time I brought Norman over for dinner out of my mind. You were as pale as the paper I am writing on when you first saw him. Maybe, I should have told you that I was bringing a guy friend with me that day. Then again, you would have ranted about it until you were blue in the mouth. On the up side, you didn’t try to talk down to him for being from Northern Ireland. I applauded you for that in my head. You have been doing better ever since. (Though we about had to call the paramedics when you found out that Norman and I were having sex now.) You, mum, and dad are making progress for my relationship with Norman and me.

Anyway, stop worrying about everyone close to you so more. We will all be fine until we say otherwise. So relax, take care of yourself from now on, and have a good day. See ya!

See You This Evening
