I believe I'm channeling my inner Scarlet . :(

On my way to Minot, ND to see my grand kids. Flew from Bradley in CT to MSP with not 1, not 2, but 3 screaming kids AND 2 barking dogs!

I can't believe the number of people travelling with dogs. Must've seen 20-30 at the airport. Big ones, little ones... and nothing ID'd as a service dog that I could tell.

Hey hey Lodge peeps. Hope all are well.

Mark - I haven't flown in a while so I'm happy someone is picking up the mantle!

Things are going OK with me. I've been spending a lot of time at my mom's - she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's in January. Physically she's fine but she just has no short term memory. She lives by herself but I feel like I'm pretty much her roommate at this point. Thankfully I'm allowed to work remotely from here a few days a week. Finally in June I arranged for a home health aide to come in two days a week so that I could be in the office the two days a week we're required to do. Bunch of fits and starts - she did come most of that time. Then yesterday I got a call from the agency that she quit. Not because of my mom, she quit the agency. I didn't ask why. They said they were working hard to get someone to come in today and tomorrow. I said don't rush, I'm here so I stayed one more night. The new person is starting next week.

This agency is on a short leash. I'm actually going to start calling a few others to get rates and how many days/week, etc. I don't trust them. My mom is very easy. She just likes watching TV. She doesn't drive any more. She doesn't cook, but she snacks. I told the aide that quit "this will be like a vacation for you. I hope you like Judge Judy!" I am basically hiring someone to make sure she takes her meds every day. She's not on very many and two of them are just vitamins so if she misses a day it's no big deal. Still, I want her to take them.

When does hockey start again???
