I was asking about your mom there... not Anne... didn't your mom
have pneumonia...?
 
And this part was Anne...

That can help..  :)

 ->  HN> She went back on Monday. Comes

 ->

 HN> She's spending most of this weekend

Pretty much to be expected...  :)

 HN> Today I'll probably keep her resting as

Hope so.  :)   Does she have a winter break coming up, or
is the next break for spring...?
