What A Weekend!

What a weekend! I was at Mom's yesterday. We were waiting for the oxygen to be delivered. The guy who brought it also taught us how to use the appartus. He was an excellent teacher. Mom was nervous about this new situation so she wanted me to stay over night. In order to do that I had to make several phone calls to find a sub for myself. I was scheduled to be the lector at the 8:30am mass at my church. Finally, at 9pm I got a phone call from someone who was able to do the job. That was a relief! I did manage to get some knitting done while down at Mom's. This morning I went to the food store for a few items for her and I bought the Sunday papers. I arrived home here, at 2:30pm. I checked my answering machine and returned a couple of phone calls. E. and D. came over when I got home. I took a digital picture for D. which he needed for something. I was also able to print the picture for him. Unfortunately, I didn't know how to load the picture into the computer. We couldn't scan it either so I lent him my camera with the memory card. Perhaps he can use someone else's computer to send the pic to its destination. I'm not high tech, technologically challenged would be more like it. I'm hoping to relax later and watch Masterpiece Theater. There will be an Agatha Christie show on, I believe. I'll knit in awhile also. I'm half way done with afghan #3. All the activity this weekend has made me very tired. Stress also contributed to my tiredness.
When E. was here and D. and I were taking the picture, printing it, etc., she did me a favor and emptied the dishwasher, changed the cat litter and took the garbage out. It was a huge help. I'm so busy doing things for Mom that I don't have time to do things for myself. She also made iced tea and poured me a large glass with lemon. Very refreshing.
I missed my day of quilting with the gals last Thursday. There may be another one in July. I hope that I don't miss that one. Anyway, now it's time to relax!!!
