Hanging Out with My Mom

Mom busy at her computer space

I have made Tuesday afternoons my "hanging out with Mom" time.  She is currently doing a project of getting some of her "stories" entered into the computer. We kids bought her a laptop several years ago.  However, the computer is still a little intimidating to her, so she doesn't get on it unless there is someone around to coach her. It hasn't worked for Dad to be that coach, so I have been spending a few hours each week hanging out and just being moral support.  In the last two months she has gotten all her emails read and has written four chapters of her memoirs.  While she does her thing, I usually  have some project I've brought along to work on, tying quilts, catching up with some of my own email communications, or just reading a book.
