Hi birdpumpkin!
Is there any way you could get a duplicate key made for your parent's house? I am very forgetful and I have been known to make duplicates of duplicates, especially when it comes to keys! In the meantime, take deep breaths. I'm glad to hear that your mom is out of the hospital. That must be a relief for you. Take care.

As for me, today has been alright. I went to work and I was doing well mood-wise, until about halfway through my shift when I suddenly became very tired. It was a struggle to get through the rest of my day. It's my birthday today and I guess they forgot. Oh well. I told one of my friends at work and they sent out the obligatory birthday email to the rest of the team. I was about to leave when they sent it out though. I'm exhausted.
