Yes, with toddlers just about anyone is more fun than Mom. I remember that one very well!
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

Thrive to spite them
So therapy was interesting, hard to stay on topic today. Although it's kind of hard to stay on topic all the time. My therapist wants me to look into applying for disability, well he mentioned that last week and we talked about it more. I'm not sure if I have a chance or if it's worth it.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Such a look of disappointment on ltc's face.
I felt so bad yesterday playing with my friend's 6-year-old, because my friend was exhausted and short on patience, thus making Auntie Mel so much more fun than Mommy. Poor Mommy gets such a bad rap. {{sj}}
Continued ~ma for Mom, please. Surgery tomorrow - a vein bypass to try to get improved blood flow down to her foot. The toes will be wait-and-see. Only 2 small incisions for the bypass, which is a huge relief in terms of healing, but it's still a bigger deal surgery than just the toes would have been. I was worried that there would be a wound from harvesting the vein to graft, but none of her others are good enough candidates, so they're using cadaveric tissue. Which I think is pretty awesome, but I think I won't bring up dead people parts around my mom.
eta: Also some show-your-face-you-dumb-cat-ma, if you please. I haven't seen the cat in a couple of days. Which isn't completely unheard of, since she doesn't like me and I've barely been home. But I am starting to be concerned that she's not just hiding, she got out and hasn't found her way back in.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Mom~ma and cat~ma for you, Epic.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Much ~ma for both Mom and cat, Epic.

Thanks, all. The dumb cat did finally make an appearance on the front porch last night. I think she's found an escape route in the garage somewhere so she'll come and go as she pleases until I find it. I just really didn't want to upset Mom that much more that she was gone.
Waiting with Mom to get taken back to surgery now.

It's so adorable how TCG think ltc will play by herself while he gets work done after 4:00. Meanwhile, I'm getting in the shower.

I think cats have their own transporter system ... they appear and disappear with no visible access or egress. Wish they'd share ....

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Wishing best possible outcome for your mom, Epic.
