I Worked Hard All My Life

. . Apparently

Today, a sudden thought popped into Mom’s head (first time I’ve ever heard this):

I remember when you were little, Lina or Selena was off cos it was Sunday evening and you were washing the dishes. And you said,

“Mom! This is not a job for a little boy.”

Background: As a kid I was certainly spoilt and did very few chores. All my clothes were washed and ironed, my food cooked, my dishes washed, things got done – as if by magic, but actually by Lina Mazibuko and then Selina, and by Judas Thabethe, Anna and Jan Radebe, then July. 

So I was probly suffering terribly! The effort! The injustice!
