Ch-ch-Changes

As far as parents go, mine are rather modern. They both have laptops, kindles and android phones. However, with their daughter in the house, they are learning so many new things! 


My father fell in love with my Keurig. In fact they bought one today for their RV so they have one when they travel. My mom discovered she can use her cell phone to make her grocery list and re-use the list over and over instead of having to keep re-writing it. 


They are very interested in anything I cook or buy and ask me any question with belief I will naturally know the answer. It can be flattering, amusing and a bit bewildering. 


I am trying to go more gluten free and seek out items at the store that are such. I have inspired my parents to do the same so they come home with many of the same groceries and sometimes new ones. If I cook something it will elicit questions like "what smells so good?" and "what are you making?" I am not used to having an audience when I cook, it's a bit tough to take and I find myself avoiding cooking.


I think my mom is most excited to have me available to answer her technology questions. I have given her a Facebook tutorial and taught her how to customize her smart phone.


I have been slowly introducing items into my mother's kitchen. She is adapting to the changes I am causing. 


Since I am working from home, my dad kindly gave up his big desk and space in his office. He has adapted to his new, smaller desk and space. 


I am adapting to having an audience, less time by myself (until my parents start traveling again next month) and sharing well....everything about my life.
