    Nope. Never became my mother. She was a much better housewife than I am. She had me iron handkerchiefs and other small chores but it was easier for her to do everything herself.
    Wait a minute....

    I don't behave like my mother (she was much nicer than me), but I do have her hands. I remember being weirded out the first time I noticed.

    Some
    Many of us had ' beer drinkers and hell raisers ' in our family. Others had the 'mother's little helpers'. it is no better today really. Maybe we Boomers worse since the whole third world is now benefitting from our weakness.
    I don't know what to think about it.
