Default What a Day!

Got up this morning - all was well..... cup of coffee, neurotalk check in, shower, and ready for work. Getting ready to head out the door and it starts!

DD calls, put her cell phone through the washing machine - won't work (only phone), car won't start - need to be at her last day of clinical before graduation on Friday in 30 minutes and her laptop died last night.

Picture a 20 year old daughter 2 hours away crying on the phone feeling like her life is devistated..... and I can't get to her. Broke my heart.

Well, took most of the morning but now she has another cell phone, her sister is there supporting her, she has my car and I have other DD's piece of crap for it wouldn't make it there.......

and Graduation is Friday night - she will graduate Radiology School.

all is a day of a mom.....

How totally true! Moms will give up whatever they can for the sake of their kids. I bet you are so proud of her with her graduation happening so soon!!

Glad you are feeling better, by the way!

Given her history, Yabbit, she'll pull herself through this and prove to you yet again that she is a remarkable young woman. Keep the faith!

all is well - she survived and only made her a little stronger on the inside! And I am sure we will laugh about the whole experience in time!

Char,

I think your signature says it all. Tough times don't last-Tough people do.

She's a lot like her Mom.

I agree w/RW~ Sounds like Jamie is a chip off the ole block. Sounds like Mom raised a good couple of girls there.

Good luck at Graduation and try and keep cool Char.
