I made it through yesterday on coffee. We got to mom's early morning post-op appointment on time and we made the conference call from our car at Michael's work (with mom in the back seat) right on time before having lunch together.
We realized we have a lot more work to do on our presentation on May 28th at my university's hospital's Grand Rounds. It will be all about sharing experiences succinctly and under five minutes. Oh my.
Today, I will hit the bank and Safeway before cleaning up the gardens and trimming the Japanese maple in the front yard. Michael is driving mom to our house for a simple dinner then we must be at the concert space early. We always run through difficult transitions an hour before a concert and mom loves hearing the workings of an orchestra. Hopefully, the concert will go well.
Afterwards, we will drop my bass off at the house then drive mom home. It will be another late night. On Mother's Day, Mom is going to church in the morning then we are meeting her for a nice lunch at Nordstrom. We didn't want a fancy restaurant needing reservations and crowds and a "special" menu. The cafe at Nords fit the bill. AND we can stay and chat as long as we like.
My mind is on the big meeting Monday afternoon up in the city with representatives from the other university medical centers in the state who will be discussing the possibility of an entirely new program for the system. They want patient input. They may get more than they want!
