Off to the North Country

[przed]

My spotty appearances on LJ are about to become more spotty. I'm off in a few minutes to go up north. My mom is scheduled for knee replacement surgery tomorrow, so I'm going up for a week to help her out, and I'll likely be back and forth up there for the next month or so. Assuming the operation does happen tomorrow. (The hospital apparently has a lack of beds right now, so the surgery may or may not happen. But since there's yet another snow storm coming in tonight, I've got to go up today.)

The one advantage of being off work right now is I can help out Mom without worrying about how much time I'm taking off. Though I'll still be missing Ros and the Sweetie like crazy.

Good thoughts on mom's recovery, not to mention the scheduling of the surgery, are welcome.

I was hoping I wouldn't a bereft of internet and computer while I was up there. I'd ordered a shiny new Apple laptop (my birthday gift from Mom) that should have been here days ago. But the order has been delayed for at least another week. Serves me right for not getting the order in on my birthday, but things have been so hectic that this past week was the first chance I had to get up to the Apple store and check out the various models. So instead, I'll be relying on the computers at the Parry Sound Public Library.

Have fun while I'm gone. And let me know if anything interesting happens.

Good luck with your mum's op. I hope it all goes smoothly. And now that I have my new shiny lappy up and running, I will get cracking this week on our little project, okay? I'll email you some thoughts.

Safe trip to you and tons of good luck to your mother! I'm sorry you won't have your shiny new lappy to keep you company, but at least you can plan all the lovely things you'll do with it when you get back. :)

Have a safe trip(s) and speedy recover to your Mom.

Hope the big guy and Ros don't trash the place too badly while you are gone.

Sending good thoughts for your mum's surgery; both that it occurs when it should, and that she recovers well. And you have a safe trip too.

Your going to Parry Sound? I collect items from there because my real name is Susan Parry.

I will hold your mother in my thoughts and prayers. Here's hoping everything go smoothly and easily.
