Why I haven't blogged for awhile

I haven't blogged for awhile because my mother had an accident last month. We had made a return visit to our hometown of Mentor, Ohio, and were on our way back to Kentucky. We stopped at a rest area off the freeway near Columbus, Ohio, and got out to use the restrooms. Mother slipped and fell on something at the rest area and broke her left hip. The paramedics rushed her to the hospital where she stayed for 3 days, and then she was transferred to a nursing home in Cynthiana, Kentucky. Her condition has gotten worse since she's been there. I go there every day to visit, and we hope and pray that she will recover to the point of coming "home" in another couple of weeks to a month. Needless to say my writing career is on hold, as is everything else in my life right now.
