Payback Time

My mum is currently visiting. I suggested she come around Mother's Day, which took place yesterday and which we celebrated partly at the country house, where I duly spoilt her (this picture is from breakfast on Friday morning) and in town, where I had booked opera tickets. She still spoils me when I visit her in Klagenfurt and I will remain an entitled only child forever, but regardless of location, a certain role reversal has been in place for a while now, even more so since my father died with me being the prime "spoiler". She's not too impressed when I actually try to "mother" her and protests to remind me she is neither a child, nor an imbecile, but she does appreciate when I go out of my way to make sure she can chill and enjoy the finer things of life, so it's a win-win.
