Scary. What's the problem? Maybe it's time to cash your boat in,
and/or get a different boat?

Yup...go smaller, or bigger. If bigger, keep on a mooring at a local boat
club.

Will let you know tomorrow.
Today was a big day...... mom finally got the word that a nursing home bed
was ready for her. We drove her to her new spot in a town 40 miles from the
city.
This is a temporary measure...as she had submitted her top three choices of
homes but she had to take the first bed open. When one becomes
available from her preferred list, she moves again.... hopefully before
winter.

for JohnH..
If you're coming to visit mom you can stay at this beautiful property right
next door to the nursing home.

I'm glad to hear things are working out well for your mom.

Last night 20-20 ran a special on health care. Canada didn't come out
looking very good, mostly because of the waiting aspect of your health
care. It seems dogs and cats have a much better shot at getting a quick MRI
than do humans.

It sounds like your mom had to undergo some of the waiting also. Damn
shame, but all is well now. Good!
