The trip to San Diego

Once we found out what the problems were, we knew that Mom couldn't be left alone any longer. So our options were to have Diva help her - but it couldn't be full time with the kids and everything, or to bring someone in. We decided against bringing in someone we didn't know. So we are selling the house and Mom has moved back to San Diego with me.

Our trip wasn't too bad. I had expected Mom to sleep most of the way but instead she was awake and chatty while I was trying to watch a movie on my iPad. That didnt work. I finally gave her the iPad and she watched Moonstruck which is one of her favorites. I slept instead....

Finally we got to our house and she was really exhausted. She had a bit of dinner (she hasn't eaten much since the surgery) and went to bed. Between the trip, the surgery, and the time difference she had pretty much had it for the day.

This all happened on last Saturday which was my birthday. Diva said that originally Mom got me on my birthday and now I was getting Mom on my birthday. Don didn't think it was so funny.
