As many of you know I'm currently traveling with my mom in search of possible new homes for her and Dad. This means looking at both condos and assisted living facilities. It's great to spend time with mom (and my aunt, who has been such a help) but I am totally exhausted too.
The funny thing about spending time with my aunt is that she is an obsessive technophile who buys gadgets and refuses to read the directions! It's strange and endearing. There is always a project for me to tackle- me! Who knows jack shit about technology. But I do read the directions so more often than not I can set things up. This trip I set up 2 nooks and an iPad...upon which I am currently hacking this out. It's fun! It's just like a big iPhone. My aunt is a livery driver who loves to read and travels out of town frequently, so she'll have access to books and email and whatnot wherever she goes.
This trip has been pretty emotional- sensory overload and whatnot. Lots of memories floating up, triggered by various sights and smells. I'll write more about it soon- I can't type too long on this crazy thing. Oh technology.
