Back to the daily routine

The relatives are gone. I took them to the airport yesterday and put them on a plane.

As a follow-up to my story about my uncle. He apologized. I think he was sincere in the apology, but I still don't trust him. I want everything to be running smoothly when he returns.

Meanwhile, there is an attempt today to get things back into a more normal daily routine. I checked on my mother around 11:30 this morning and will go over to her house to mow the grass this afternoon. My hope is to find a balance between what she needs for me to do and my own life --- which at the moment seems to be ruled by chaos, but I'm working on it.

For now, I guess that is the best we can do.
