Me, Mom, and More

Like just about anything, blogs can be good or bad. Heck, I have no idea if anyone will read this. This entry isn't really anything specific; but, I want to get a few things off my mind...

These last few weeks have been difficult. I had to stop working my day job in order to make sure I 'd be able to spend time with my mom before and after her surgery. The surgery went well; and, she's been rehab and physical therapy. However, despite her MS and having her left leg amputated, she's too well to qualify for insurance assistance to be discharged to a rehab facility. Go figure...

One of the main reasons I started The HRR was my mom's health. She's been in poor health for years; and, I wanted to be able to take care of her; spend time with her; and have the flexibility to work when I needed to do so. Through the years, The HRR has struggled financially; and, I've thought about calling it quits numerous times. However, something always seems to happen which causes me to decide to continue my efforts; so, I keep plugging a long though I don't really know why...

I'm not sure what direction The HRR will take in the future (NBA only; WNBA only; women's hoops only; men's hoops only; both; neither -- who knows); but, I'll continue down this path as long as I can.
