Due to after-school conferences, today's gonna be one of those 13-hour marathon deals, meaning not much time for idle chatter. However, as a few of you may already know, my mom hasn't been feeling so well as of recent, and although today's going to be a rather long and busy one, she'll continue to be on my mind the whole time. To know my mother is to understand that she's the sort of woman who spends most of her time thinking, worrying, and praying for everyone except herself. So for today, rather than spend a few minutes reading my drivel, I was thinking those minutes might be better spent by returning the favor and thinking about her. Thanks, and I'll try to be back up and running tomorrow...
