not ready yet
As today, teh cat that the "bastard secret admirer so secret they didn't even let us know they were an admirer at all" let us in the garden od my grandparents' unhabiotated house should be around 12 days old.
Mina has came to... well, she has came to come to me for, basically, everything - I'm bottle-feeding her, preparing her the dauly dosis of kitty powder milk every morning, cleaning her and so so on.
I even got used to wake up in the middle of the night every cpouple of hours to give her warm milk - and thanks God for my biologial internal clock, so I don't need to set the alarm on.
And...
well, my mum was loking at me bottle-feeding Mina (In honour of Stocker's Dracula) with tears in her eyes, and I heard the sentence I never thought I could hear from her - basically, because it's ten years she tells me the opposite...
"I'm not ready yet to be a grand mother at all. I thought I was, but I'm not, and you are so young.... you'll be a great mother one day, I mean, you are threatening that kitty like a baby, and you are great and willing to make sacrifices for a cat so i can't even start to imagine how you'll be once you'll have a baby of your own, but... I'm not ready to be a gran mother, really.... you still have over 15 years to be a mum, but.... I don't know. I'm scared that if I'll be one too soon, I'll start asking my grabdchildren to call me Grazia instead of grandma..."
