Bathing 11/17/09

While taking care of the baby chick Tita had been reminded of Roberto and how she missed him and Pedro so much. Life still had to go on for everybody else though, so she had to keep doing the necessities for the house. She herself had to bathe Mama Elena because it was her duty as the youngest daughter of the family. Mama Elena was very precise about how she wanted her baths, she would want them with warm water, but only if it was heated my lavender flowers, since this gave it it's scent, and Tita would have to wash her herself and iron the clothes before her mother got out, and not only that, she would have to open the door slightly so the change in temperature wouldn't be too abrupt and get her sick. If Tita wouldn't do everything the way it was supposed to be, then she would get scolded for it. This makes me feel extremely bad for Tita because her mother is extremely precise and picky about everything so she never gets away with a single mistake.
