With heavy heart and feet of lead
I have to leave you now
With tearful eyes and hanging head
I really have to go

I'll miss you so, and you'll forget
That I was ever here
You will not cry, you will not fret
When I'm no longer near

Life will be without affection
No poems, no mail, no chums
AND - no Internet connection!
I have to go to Mum's.

But I'll be back in a couple of weeks!

Duty calls. You might call it a vacation, I call it two weeks of being dead - I love my mother dearly, but after the first hour I'm afraid I run out of things to say, and there is nothing else to do. If I read or write she tells me I'm being antisocial. And think of all those poems I will never have the time to catch up on!

Oh, dear Sue, please don't be so blue.
Your life here will not stop.
Before you go, fork out some dough
And get a small laptop.

I've got one, but mother hates my using it - it's all I can do to check my mail before she starts objecting. I don't see her that often, and she is very old, so I bear with her.

Sue, make the best of your vacation...perhaps approach things from a different perspective...cherish the time with your mother
