Even More Mom

[errantember]

So instead of finally being done with her foot surgery and able to walk again after 6 weeks in a wheelchair, my Mom just found out she'll be in that wheelchair for another *month*. In addition, many of the long-suffering and very generous friends and neighbors who have been busting their ass to help her out will be going on vacation soon. As she lives 200 miles away, this translates into probably at least three more trips up there in the coming months to help her out. She's super-depressed, as anyone would be after being stuck in a wheelchair for over a month, and I was looking forward to a Mom-free summer to get my financial shit in gear. I'll be leaving tomorrow on the first of these newer trips, and will be back in town on Saturday, hopefully in time to go see Oceana at the Vortex.
