Another edition of the Lynch Kids are jerks.
I just got off the phone with my mother. One of the neighbors is helping her get into my father's email account. I had to come up with the password. And they had the wrong account.
But all I can think is that this neighbor is thinking, "Why hasn't anyone helped this poor women with her email? Why is it up to me to help her? Shouldn't her children be doing this?"
I think my father tried for ten years to get her to use email. but it was always easier for my mother to just let my father be her secretary. He would print out her emails. She would write out by hand her responses and my father would send them back. I know my sister Roberta tried to get her to understand email to no effect after my father had the temerity to die and leave her without a secretary.
And now here we are.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
