It's eye-straining, it's finger-pricking. Something I don't enjoy doing now at my age. I can't even thread the needle as easily as how I used to do it 5 years ago. I'd rather leave this mountaineous task (I mean just the needle threading part, to Hoe). It's not about saving a few ringgit to get his pants altered just because it's too long. It's about convenience at the right time. This is always required urgently on weekends when the next day is a school day. Somehow, holes always must be mended on weekends and not earlier. So, it leaves Mom with no choice but to fulfill this motherly responsibility. If I have a choice, I'd rather have a heart-to-heart conversation or a revision session with the kids than doing this sewing stuff. It's best left to the expert who can just do this in the blink of an eye, effortlessly.
