Yes, it is a. it puzzling to ponder, why is it so difficult for me to have a private conversation with my mother, and then suddenly in the corner of my eye I notice the little Bell brat hovering nearby, eavesdropping no doubt, because anyway I was not talking to her, and she was my sister's guest so why is she not with my sister istead of she wondering around the house eavesdropping on everybody else? And anyway, wasn't she always a willing participant n all of those pranks organized against me by little sister, so not really someone to pity that much? I never get a brea, it is just always a one-way street with them.
And why all of this pressure on mom, as if she were the dictionary? No, I should probably just look in a dictionary and not ask again. Enough about that. As if it were only a question of dictionaries.
