Monday afternoon open thread — and update on my mother

Turns out my mother simply fainted because she fainted.  When you’re her age, that sometime happens.  It scared the living daylights out of my son, though, who thought she had died right before his eyes.  We talked about it and he’s recovered from the experience now, as she has.  Long day and a tiring one, as you can imagine.

Today has been busy for the git-go, and promises to remain so.  I’ll try to blog, but I’m not committing myself.

If you’re interested, enjoy this as an open thread.
