A Better Day

przedIt's been a much better day today.
I started off by pulling out of the running of both the questionable jobs. I immediately felt a ton less stressed, which tells me it was completely the right thing to do.
I then made a lightning run up to Parry Sound, arrived just in time to meet Mom and my cousin at the entrance to the hospital. The surgeon saw mom, and assured us that the bruising on her foot was just leftover blood from the surgery draining to the lowest point. It will dissipate soon enough, and mom is doing fine. This is an immense relief. (I'm glad we saw him, since the foot looks pretty alarming. More alarming is the fact that mom, my cousin, and the neighbour who's been checking on mom say the whole thing looked ten times worse yesterday. Yikes!)
I'm actually posting this via the good old Parry Sound Library wireless internet. Apparently they don't bother blocking LJ if you're using your own computer. (Hoorah for my shiny new Mac laptop. It's a beauty.)
Tomorrow I should be back in Toronto, and back doing the whole job search thing. (Though I'm thinking a repeat matinee viewing of Sherlock Holmes is in order. I really need to get a Holmes icon uploaded.)

Date: 2010-01-20 02:12 am (UTC)I'm thrilled that, if I'm reading you right, you liked SH. I am madly in love w/ the entire movie, cast, script, director, etc. I just loved it. I am spending my evenings learning about RDJ and JL and reading movie!verse stories.
So if you ever want to talk about the movie, I'm your girl! Cyanne and I are supposed to see it again Friday night. I can't wait.
Anyway, I hesitate to use my new icon that Cyanne made b/c I'm afraid no one will know me w/o my B&D icon, but I'll use it the first time for this comment - it's still me even w/o B&D in my icon!
