Mum-ictionary™ : B1 for Bother

Mum’s coined term for the many ways she keeps me busy with requests (or her loving way of bothering or interrupting my day with things she's wanted me to do for her):

• B1: Timing her leg elevation
• B2: Fetching her glasses from the dining table so she can play June’s Journey, or
• B3: Asking whether she can play in bed with her legs elevated.

At one point, she realized she'd gone as far as seven "bothers" in just minutes.
