I hope she gets better.

I hope your Mother gets better.

I hope your day is good.

I'm so sorry about your mom. It's scary. {{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}
My mom had breast cancer and mastectomy 3 years ago. The surgery, chemo and recovery were awful. But at this point, she's still clear. She's 62 years old and I keep thinking it's inevitable that it's going to come back one of these days.

SIN, best wishes for your mom

I hope your mother recovers and that you have a good day.

Thanks for the support and wonderful thoughts for my mom, everybody. Update: it turns out that it *wasn't* recurrent breast cancer this time around - but rather, advanced ovarian cancer. My mom's finally out of the hospital after 2+ weeks, and she's had her first dose of chemo (out of 6). I guess it's just a waiting game, now...

That's got to be tough. Hope your mom gets well soon - keep breathing,

*sends you a hug*

Best wishes to your Mom Sinsister.

I hope your mother's doing okay (all things considered), SINsister.

My week's been long. I've just started the second three-week term of three terms of intensive second-year Spanish. It's nearly midnight, and after that it will be Wednesday. I have a Spanish composition due on Friday, homework due tomorrow and every weekday thereafter, and I'm going to my parents' house Friday evening to do my laundry (and get a homecooked meal... I am a terrible cook ).

My week has been less quiet than I had hoped it would be - not enough time for afternoon naps, meh. Been mucking out the kitchen mostly - defrosting and scrubbing the evil fridge from hell (took two days in the sun for all the ice to melt), removing a mouse nest that was hidden behind it , five bin bags full of crap later it looks like a kitchen again....

Other than that its far too hot and sticky, so I've been drinking far too much cider (there goes the weight loss plan) and having a riot in a chat room until the early hours. And I'm still missing Mel. Oh well...

I have been downloading songs and cannot download this one song that I want.

SINsister - best wishes to your mum, and to you of course.

My troubles are insignificant when compared to that, but I need to vent.

I have a new boss. She's a really nice person, but she has a habit of interrupting me every few minutes when I'm busy doing something to ask me a question about something unrelated to the task in hand. Which of course means I have barely got anything done the last few days.

I realise that she's new and trying to learn about what goes on in our organisation, but I wish she would schedule a time with me to discuss any questions she has, rather than keep interrupting what I'm doing. I can't even answer when she does that, since I am focussed on the original task and can't switch topics quickly enough to give an intelligent answer within a timeframe that would appear acceptable. I end up burbling incoherently, only giving half an answer, then kind of blanking her for a minute (during which she does not give me time to think, but keeps talking at me) before coming up with something semi-coherent.

Then when I have made myself look stupid enough already, I usually have to start whatever I was doing beforehand over from the beginning because I forgot where I was up to.

Then when I am back on track (with valuable time lost) she asks something else and it repeats over and over all day, with me getting more and more frustrated and withdrawn.
