My mother always asks, “why don’t you come and visit me?”
Big reason! She ALWAYS has these shows blasting as loud as the TV can go. As long as I can remember she had every talk show on all day interrupted only by soap operas. The View is vile, loud, and horrible. Who can watch that garbage?
Have you told mother that that is the reason?
............lol, as a parent that never sees his kids either, even though they live in the same town, go see her, TV or not! I KNOW how she feels.
