I'll Try Hard Not To Pretend Allow Myself No Mock Defense

My mom had her surgery last week and everything was going well, and then things started going not so well and everyone was tense, and then things started going well again and that's where things stand right now. My entire weekend was spent out at my parents' place or fretting at my place so I didn't do anything fun or exciting or remotely interesting but I don't want to leave Friday's post as the first thing you see on my blog. You know, the post where I offend the happy people? It really wasn't my intention and I'm sorry if my stupid words hurt anyone's feelings. I use snarkiness as a defense mechanism. I'm working on it (ineffectually, evidently.)

So to sum up: I'm an ass. I'm sorry I'm an ass. And can you please think happy healing thoughts for my mom. The end.

  5. You're not an ass - My mom was in the hospital for 53 days in total over 2.5 months... she was not great, but in the end, she was perfect. So that means your mom will be too :)
    And the Canucks kicked ass, which also means your mom will be fine. That's my logic! And my thoughts are with you :)

  15. I meant to comment on this a million years ago, but that's what I always say!

    I'm so sorry that your mom's recovery wasn't going well at some point. That must have been beyond scary & terrible! :[ I'm glad things are looking up again and I hope her recovery is going just peachy now! xo
