If wishes were fishes..

If wishes were fishes, I know where I’d be,
Casting my net in the dark rolling sea;
And if my net’s empty when it comes back to shore,
I’ll throw it away and go fishing no more.



If I could have a wish, it’d be for my mother to quit smoking. I don’t mind that she smokes, I have nothing against smoking or smokers. I just would love it if she would quit. Why? The cost is insane. That’s really the whole reason. She pays nearly $50 a carton for her cigs. And those are the cheap brand. I offered to get her an electronic cigarette to see if it would help her quit. She wouldn’t even listen. It’s alright though, at least I offered. Hopefully, one day she’ll decide to give in and quit.

There are other things I’d wish for, some big, some small. I’d love to see things be easier for my Mom and that’s really what I’d wish for above all. To make things easier.
