Barbara,

Sorry to hear about your mom. I spent the holidays dealing with my 95 year old mother-in-law who badly needs to be placed but whose only son (my husband) continues to resist. There is a reason we do not have children in our 50's....we are not equipped with the patience to raise them but, unfortunately, many of us are now having to "raise" our elders.
Hope your New Year is better. I know my office staff is hoping the same for me as my grumpiness seems to hit them the hardest.

Leslie, who may spend tomorrow night locked in my bedroom with a case of Corona and a sack of limes.
