Well, I am home in CT and it feels like I am reliving the summer of 2002. I am busy running between things I have to do at home and the hospital. My Mom is spending most of her days in the hospital also.

Woah am I tired. This weekend I left DC to go visit my brother and sister-in-law with my Mom and the dog.

Tonight, however, is different ( Read more... )
