7 minute Audio Introduction to The Mom & Me Journals
is to undermine the isolation of the caregiving experience
by offering all, especially our loved ones, a window into our lives.
As I post to this journal I think of our loved ones and their families,
how busy and involved we all are, and that,
if and when they come to this site they can be assured
that they will miss nothing in our lives and will, thereby, recognize us
and relax easily into our arms and our routines
when we are again face to face.

To MFASRF: We are getting a new phone number today.
It's rather a celebratory day for Mom. We had the option to keep our number and I thought we probably should, to keep from confusing Mom. I was very careful to discuss it with her. She's delighted to change it. She acknowledged that she has forgotten our phone numbers, anyway, and seems to think changing her phone number is similar to a societal debut. She's such a funny woman, MFASRF!
When I pointed out that all her older relatives in Iowa and South Dakota might have trouble remembering the number change she said, "It'll do them good! They need to be shaken up!"
