A Quick Non-Knitting Update

I brought Mom home from the hospital on Friday--she's doing as well as someone with COPD, a progressive disease that cannot be cured or reversed, can. She made the decision to move to a local assisted living retirement home, so I am busy helping with all the details involved with moving a month from now.

Thanks to everyone for their good wishes! The next month will be stressful for all of us--I will return to California after teaching the workshops up here, and then I'll come back to Seattle to facilitate the move itself. I swear, it's like I never moved to California, all the time I've been spending up north....

Thank goodness for knitting! I'm looking forward to teaching the workshops (the 3-day one is full, but last I heard there was still some space in the 1-day color class on the 31st).

Normal blogging will resume soon, I promise!

2.75 really will be your retreat. I've got the shoulders and the hugs waiting....

Take care! Hope all goes smoothly.

Best of luck with your mom and I hope she settles in well. My father has COPD and has been in the hospital twice in the last month as they try to control the side effects. I am dreading The Call, and hoping that things will settle down for a while yet. My parents will hopefully celebrate their 60th in late June.

I'm behind on blog reading as usual, but wanted to say that I'm thinking of you and your Mom and hoping that everything goes as smoothly as possible.

Glad to hear that your mom is doing better. COPD is rough to live with.
