Off and Away

Last night I drove to Owego, so I could get up rather early this morning and drop Mom off at the airport for her flight to Baton Rouge.

Today it was quite nice at 0500, only a light dusting of snow on the car. So we went in my Cavalier instead of her Forester, because my car warms up faster, and no four-wheeling seemed indicated. Boy was I wrong, because as we headed east to Binghamton Airport, things got nasty in a hurry. Plenty of wet snow on the roads, very slippery. Still, we got here there in time, I drove back to Owego, and went back to bed. That last was to cat Katie's great disappointment; when I walked back in at 0630, she was convinced that it was playtime, and I had to eject her my from bedroom to get any rest at all.

Before she left, I gave technophobe Mom a rundown on basic operation of her new cell phone. I wonder how much of it she'll retain? And she left it turned off in the morning, which is not exactly a good sign about her "getting" how a cell phone works.

2 Yes, the batteries will stay fresh. Also, no one can call her. While she bought it for travel emergencies, I think it important that the people that are going to pick you up at the airport also be able to contact you.
