In other news, I am trying to tie up so many loose ends regarding Mom, and I feel I am making good progress so far. It's not easy by any means, nor is it a short-term process. I am still not finished notifying some of her friends, since I cannot locate their names/numbers, etc. I dread that phone call I will inevitably get asking to talk to her and I will have to break the news. :-(
One of the many diversions I have been engaged in to keep from dwelling on the bad stuff is a home theater PC. Other than it's own huge data drives, it's done, and working better than expected. My previous project PC has not faired as well, I have determined that the motherboard is bad. I will most likely update it with something newer and more capable someday. No hurry, I got lots of other things to do.
