I went to the studio to see what I could do for my mother today. I was extremely encouraged by my mother's reception and appreciation for the work I got done in her shop. I didn't get after pictures taken, mostly because I only got 1/4 of the room done in three hours, so I hope to go back in the near future. When she came in after I had been working for a while, she mentioned she could use this kind of help in "about 12 places in my life." No kidding. I can't wait to go back though, I'm hopeful. My biggest worry is less their acceptance now, but the time.
