Maggie Monday: My Eyes, My Eyes!

Thanks all for your love of Maggie. I think my aunt likes to see her stories here; it must help her realize she's not hallucinating these things.

I went to Maggie's yesterday to drop off her laundry and give her some lemon chicken and rice and chicken parm and spaghetti. She started the conversation by saying she won't be able to eat it for a couple of days because she bought a couple of mini lobster rolls on Saturday. 
She then says, "I didn't know you cooked like this." Apparently she thinks that I haven't been cooking for the last 40+ years. 
She asked me whether she should keep some clothes she had bought (QVC). After nixing some Denim and Co. jerseys and some Women with Control slacks, she started bitching about her big floppy boobs. And that's when she flashed me. 
My aunt hopes to retain her vision for the upcoming family vacation, but we're not sure...

I have not illustrated this post for the obvious reasons.

You should write a one-woman stage show based on Maggie and take it on the road. I'd definitely buy a ticket.

Another cute story Nikki. Keep them coming.

Thanks for the laughs! I second the idea of a stage show.

She' one of a kind!

I am laughing out loud all by myself here. I do enjoy the Maggie stories and I think this is the best one.

I'm a new follower and am intrigued by the stories of your grandmother. She sounds like an amazing lady.

I think Maggie's got two of a kind, as your aunt can attest to, but perhaps doesn't wish to discuss. :-)

Good one!

I love the Maggie stories. Anyone who's made it to their 90s has the right to be as zany as they want!

Coral said...

I love the idea! Is Maggie trying to scare off the relatives?

Maybe your Aunt should start blogging. She has plenty of stories.

Thank for the laugh and for the lack of pictures! Apart from the ones in my mind...
