Ohmygawd honey, i just read back and caught up what was going on with you. I'm glad to hear your mom is doing so well - and am also glad that you are so much stronger then you realise and found the strength to get him out and press charges on him.
I am going to be in Flagstaff in January for a conference! We should do lunch!! Its good to see you posting! I missed you!
As for the clocks - I think its an evil trick by the government to keep us half cocked and unaware LOL! I DISPISE daylight savings. It throws me for a loop for about a month.
The extra hour of sleep IS nice though........:P
