Been at mums house now for 4 days. It's going ok, kinda feel unneeded. I am cooking the meals but she'll be reading so I go read and the next thing I know she's outside washing windows. You can tell it hurts her but if I try to help she tells me to go away. The reason I'm here is to help! I know she doesn't want to feel useless but let me help. I wish I could get her to tell me things like, I want the windows washed would you do it?

Ah well, there's bound to be adjustments on both our parts.
