What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday 150

It's a Wednesday... that's fer sure...
Before I start to prattle don't forget to go check out the other spots  at:

This was taken early this morning.
 Today has not gone at I had hoped... 
Spread about today are the journals I'd planned to work in when I got back in from my morning workout: Book of Days and Soulistry. In addition there's some artwork and business cards out that I was packing up to send off to a charity event that's going on tonight downtown. 
There should be a post coming soon after this with more deets about that...

 Today I came home to a rather garbled message from our house guest as a result of a rather garbled message left with him by my Dad. Long and short of it: My Mother was crossing a rather busy street a 1/2 block from were they live, she had the right away and was in the cross-walk when a driver turned left quickly and she was struck. She bounced up and across the front of the car and fell off hard on her left side. Luckily though her left side is quite battered up, only her nose is broken, it was partially torn but able to be repaired. She is now at home but my husband and I spent the majority of the day with her at the hospital. 
So that's been my Wednesday.

What a dreadful shock Sarah, your poor Mum. I hope that she heals fast and doesn't lose her going out nerve. Do you think it would cheer her to recieve a get well card from a few WOYWWers? If you think so, let me know, I know there are loads who would love to sender a non bruising hug!

What an awful day...soooo glad to hear your mum is safe and already home. Thinking of you all and sending lots of happy healing vibes your way.

Bernice said...

Oh Sarah, I hope your Mum makes a speedy recovery. What an awful shock for you - I know how it feels as this happened to my husband when we were on holiday a few years ago. He ended up with 8 broken bones and spent the whole of the week in hospital, being transferred to one near home by ambulance (and ferry) after a week.

Helen said...

Sarah, I hope a few days later that your Mum is recovering and you have got over the shock of such a phone call. Sorry I didn't get to you earlier. Take care and love to your Mum.

Rita said...

Hi there

I've just come over from Julia's post from 22nd April (yeh, i'm way behind with reading my emails (feeds)... I came because of the news about your poor Mum and wondered how she is now being as some time has passed. I hope she is well and truly on the mend by now. I'm sorry if you've updated on a later post, but I felt compelled to pop over to send my best wishes for her recovery.

Best wishes to you too
