The day started out with my mother calling at 8 am . I wo n't tell go into the nature of the call ; just know it ended with my mother sniffing , " Well , if you ever find the time , call me some time . " I said two words during the entire three minute conversation .
What may have been the purpose of the call ?
- To make sure I was okay since I had n't been heard from in a while .
 - To make sure I was awake by 8 am .
 - For my mother to give me her new phone number .
 - My mother wanted to make sure I started my day off with a good breakfast .


To make sure I was okay since I had n't been heard from in a while .
