Dad and I went to the long-term care facility to feed Mom lunch, and afterward we went to her room to watch some television. In the middle of the program, a Breaking News story came up: All planes across the entire nation are grounded until further notice. They're saying the issue is "communication" and are not due to a "nefarious attack."
Well, I didn't see that coming. As I joked to Dad, "I fly, what, maybe once or twice a year? What are the odds?" And we made a few references to it being Friday the 13th.
So ... I'm here until further notice. Could be worse. I'm with people I love, I can continue to get some writing done, and I can be helpful to my dad for a little while longer.
