Linda: sitting on the edge of the bed, looking down Why won't you let me in? Am I so bad?
No, you're not bad. You're just...complicated.
Oh! Complicated. Now that's interesting...
Yeah, well, it's hard being your kid. You jump around too much. It's like you don't even know what you're doing half the time.
That is true, but the thing is...I am not sure what I'm doing! I'm trying to be a good stepmom, but sometimes things just pop into my head! I feel like I'm still learning!
Don't worry. I'm not a kid anymore. I understand what it means to be lost.
You know, I've been lost in Paris while modeling, I've been lost in my own mind while trying to figure out who I am...I think we can both relate.
Yeah, I know. But you gotta settle down, Linda. Life isn't a fashion show.
But life can be a fashion show! When I'm gardening, I like to wear a nice sundress and some fresh flowers in my hair. When I'm doing yoga, I like to wear those comfy stretchy pants...
Look, it's not about what you wear. It's about finding balance.
Now, would you like some advice from an old model like me? Sometimes I wish I'd taken more risks with my career...
Sure, go ahead. What's your best piece of advice?
Darlin', I'm so glad you're here, can I get you something to drink? Maybe some sweet tea or lemonade?
Actually, yeah, that sounds nice. Sweet tea, please.
Of course! I'll be right back.
So, the tea will steep for a few minutes, why don't you go sit down on the porch while I get that? I can bring you some fresh cookies too...
You know, I love baking cookies almost as much as I love gardening!
Don't get me started on gardening. I've got a little garden in my room, and trust me, that's all the green space I'll ever need.
Well, when I have time, I like to tend to my roses. They're so delicate and beautiful...it's like working on a tiny piece of art! Do you have any hobbies?
I like to draw. Mostly plants. And trees. It helps me relax.
Drawing is one of my favorite things to do! I've been known to spend hours sketching out outfits or doing portraits of friends. Sometimes I even paint! Do you use colored pencils or watercolors?
Colored pencils. Just colored pencils. Watercolor scares me; there's too much pressure.
Well, I'm a bit of a perfectionist myself, so I totally get that. I mean, I love the look of watercolor, but if you ask me to paint something freehand...let's just say it won't be a masterpiece.
Would you show me how to do watercolor sometime? I want to try it.
Absolutely! I'll teach you everything I know! You know what else I can teach you? How to make homemade perfume!
