Log
07:00 AM: I’m up. [Emmy] got a nasty cold yesterday, and now my big concern is that I’ll contract it and give it to Mom during my hospital visits. Hopefully, since I just got over a cold back in March, I’m still strong enough to fight off this one.
08:15 AM: Heading in to the hospital to visit Mom. Back later.
12:05 PM: On the way back to [Emmy's] from the hospital, I visited Dunkin’ Donuts for my usual decaffeinated coffee with hazelnut flavoring. Total cost: $2.09.
12:45 PM: I’m back at [Emmy's].
03:10 PM: Just received word that doctors are discharging Mom from UPMC this afternoon. So I’m on my way to her room there to catch a ride in the ambulance back to Altoona with her.
03:45 PM: I’m at the hospital for my second and last visit for not only today, but hopefully for the foreseeable future as well.
06:00 PM: The ambulance is all packed, and we’re leaving now for Altoona.
08:20 PM: We just arrived at the nursing facility in the Altoona area where Mom will convalesce for at least the next month.
09:30 PM: Sister Christine and husband Richard met me at Mom’s new location. They helped get her all settled in, and we hung out in the 1st floor lounge, catching up.
10:00 PM: Christine and Rich brought me back here to the home office. I found however that my WiFi system is not working. Investigating…
10:20 PM: Looks like a failed power supply was the cause of the WiFi outage. I replaced it and all is well once more.
01:00 AM: Watched the 2010-07-18 edition of NBC’s Meet The Press news show while unpacking.
02:15 AM: Watched the 2010-08-27 episode of The Young and the Restless on the DVR.
02:25 AM: Heading to bed, in my own bed. More tomorrow. Good night.
