I too am sorry to hear about your Mom. It brings a tear as I think about my 96 year old grandmother passing away a few months ago. It's not easy but I keep telling myself she made it gracefully to 96 so I can't complain about that.

If you worked in the US, we have something called FMLA which requires an employer to allow you to take time for various events and caring for a family member is one of them. I guess they need it where you are for jerks like the old boss.

Love the weatherbeard!!! And I thought the lego guy was entertaining. I stay inside a lot but I may look into the weatherbeard if they prove reliable.
