Oh, bummer, meara! I hate days like that
Good luck with the cat, askye, have fun on vacation!
I'm heading to my 40th HS reunion on Thursday. It will probably be fine but I have a bit of dread because I don't have any tidy answers to "so what have you been doing for the last 40 years" at all. I have not kept up with any of these people, really - a few on FB but just if the algorithm decides we should see each other, y'know? I do have a dress I am happy to wear to the "gala" on Saturday, and a blue fleece jacket (from work) that is pretty much the right blue to wear to the homecoming football game on Friday.
This'll be the longest my parents will have gone without a supporting relative in the house since my mom's fall, too. Mom is doing really well, she can pick up light things with her right hand already, but she can't write or carry anything upstairs unless it's in a pocket or pour hot water for tea, stuff like that. My dad wasn't feeling well yesterday and pretty much slept all day and if that happens while I'm gone they'll be really limited. Hopefully he'll stay relatively healthy.
