Happy belated Mother's Day!

To all my wonderful mama friends: go listen to this RIGHT NOW and know I'm thinking of you!

(But maybe not when the little darlings are on your knee...)

More about my adventurous Mom Day weekend... my flight back is delayed by a day. Love to you all!

Mother's Day and my mom

Mother's Day and my mom

I wasn't going to see my parents on this trip to CA, bexause I was
coming back in a few weeks for Maker Faire. But since that isn't
happening for me this year, I didn't know when I'd be back in the area
to see my folks again, so I was going to try to zip down to Penngrove
before leaving for home on this trip.

After setting up the booth on Friday, I got a call from my dad... my mom
was in the hospital, with a multiple compound fracture of right leg,
above the ankle. I was told not to come yet, and as the weekend
progressed, was told not to come at all.

I felt kind of hurt and rejected by this, and decided to come down
anyway to give my dad a bit of support... at least HE seemed happy that
I wanted to come see him. So, after a very successful Whole Earth
Weekend (which I hope to write up soon), I borrowed my hostess' Prius
and drove to Sonoma County.

This is the only picture I think my parents have of each other as young
sweeties. I think I'll pick up a new frame for it. I fly back to KC
tomorrow... yay Southwest for no-charge flight changes!
