Life threw me a large curve ball. My 73 year old mother tore ligaments in her hip while playing water volleyball. I spent most of last night in the ER with her, praying nothing was broken, and most of today running around picking up her prescriptions and groceries, running out to her house to grab clothes, medications, etc, helping her get in and out of a chair to use the bathroom, etc. She's going to stay at my house for a few days until she is able to get around on her own. I didn't sit down or do anything else until 3:30 in the afternoon and I am more exhausted than I was when my kids were toddlers! Thank gawd for my husband, who cooked an excellent dinner for us.
